Inside Circle Cuts with Tile Saws

Video Transcript

"Hi, this is Brian Carter on behalf of Expertvillage.com. I have 10 years of ceramic tile installation experience. Today I am going to show you how to make an interior circular cut. Okay, so we have got our drawing here for a circle. We are going to come in and we are going to cut this just like we did with the three-sided cut, which are nice straight cuts. You can continue to make these cuts, and you can see it looks rough, but we are just nipping away at it. And we get close to the end here, keep going through. As you can see I have got the tile up, so that the blade is cutting it at 90 degree angle from the surface of the tile so it cut straight through, and makes it much easy to clean up later. Now you see it has a very rough edge here, we have got a few pieces that I want to break off and I will do that. Now we are going to run this through the saw. We are going to smooth it up from side-to-side. It doesn’t matter which side to start on, I would like to start on the left, sometimes I get bored and start on the right but that’s a personal issue. You can see we just move that up and it is really nice, it is very nice, it is going, as I get close to this end, I pull up and go back and forth. Okay pretty smooth, nice and beautiful."
