    This is totally unrelated to the actual work here Jeff but I feel I should share this with you. A couple of years back my brother was struggling with anxiety & depression. I know, I know but during that time I was learning how to do a bunch of handy work which is how I discovered your channel. Anyway we would sit down to watch you renovate homes & teach us how to build sheds together. We really learned a lot from you & your attitude gave both of us confidence. It very easily could've been another YT channel or something else but it was truly you that kept us coming back. We couldn't wait to see what you would teach us next but you also made us laugh man & for that I am truly grateful. You helped my brother pull through. Thank you Jeff!

    I genuinely appreciate this channel, Jeff. Even though I'm over in Finland, the sense applies regardless. Do get that guard back on your grinder (I know it makes sighting harder) and stop breathing dust! We need you around longer to finish up our training, and eventually retire in good health! Absolutely an under-rated channel. Thanks.

  • @RawTakes
    @RawTakes Před 2 lety +6

    for a beginner/diy guy (not me but for them out there), use the grinder guard and u can place your thumb on it to keep the grinder steady and also put the grinder down without it running on you if it catches the blade. Also, u can use your speed square to mark the back of the tile where your front marks are at when plunging instead of eyeing it..usually noobs will miss and have to restart the cut since the outlet cut (in this video) will not hold the outlet lip when screwing it back into place. And use a sponge to keep dust down and keep the tile cooled off just squeeze some water over your cut area. Noobs will apply too much pressure and most likely break the piece a couple times. Just some ideas. Good video none the less

  • @JohnDenverized
    @JohnDenverized Před 3 lety +12

    Jeff, I just finished cutting tile for our Master Bath and used the angle grinder cut off wheel you suggested. It worked great! Even cutting the hole for the toilet flange worked just as you said it would. If I may make a suggestion: Wear a face shield and N95 mask. Inhaled silica can lead to silicosis. We need you around for another 50 years so we can continue to learn from your experience! Happy Trails! John

    Another great video! A secondary tool to buy is a 5 amp rotary tool, like the rotozip or dremel, that takes the 1/8" or 3/16" diamond bits for cutting smaller things like electrical outlets and pipe holes. Then go around with the same bit and tune up strike plates for doors that have trouble latching because of house settling. That pretty much pays for there.

Not only do they Tech me the techniques I need to know but they make me feel better about the projects I’m doing. I feel a lot more confident I’m not going to royally screw up my house. I’m about to put in some porcelain tile flooring in our bathroom and when it came to figuring out the toilet flange which just so happens to be right smack in the middle of a large 12x24” tile I was like how on earth does that work. Well you solved that issue for me and I’m actually kind of excited to try cutting out a circle now. It’s yet another tool to buy I may only use once but oh well. Still cost less then hiring a contractor assuming I can even find one right now. They are all backed up with work for months.

    As always, I love Jeff's videos. Thanks for the tip about not cutting glass with a grinder as I was about to. I would urge Jeff and all viewers to wear dust mask and ear muffs. Actually, I recently cut some thick tiles with a grinder and similar porcelain/ceramic blade and cuts easily. I did it directly on the lawn and laid a hose with running water flowing over the cut line. Worked perfectly and eliminated virtually all dust. I marked the cut lines with permanent marker which was not affected by the water. Grinder was fine and there was no electrocution. A home made wet saw!

For an an amateur using an angle grinder can be very dangerous so take care, and try and use a guard, and wait for the blade to stop spinning before you put it down!! If possible use a clamp to hold tiles to your cutting board to prevent them from flying off :) Thank you for the video

    Thanks for such a clear video. I've used my angle grinder to cut 6 x 6 inch porcelain floor tiles and it got the job done, but I never dreamed I could cut those big 2 foot square tiles reasonably straight with the same set up. Using the rectified edge as guide and then marking the cut with the grinder at about 5 degrees was when I knew I could do it. That's real information in the context of getting real work done. I'm putting a 2 x 4 foot tile as a jointless work area on my tired formica kitchen benchtop and then cutting 2 x 2 ft tiles to fit around it. (Well, 600 by 600 here in Australia.) I'm going to have to practice letting a good blade do the cutting with just the weight of the grinder on larger work, but I have picked up some 2 by 2 ft tiles cheaply at $15 for three that are not the right color. I think I am good to go now.

    I'm a pre apprentice for tile and screwed up almost every porcelain tile score cut! I'm kinda glad to know they do break easily not in a straight line. I was having so many issues that i felt so bad and felt like a fuck up honestly... it really made be feel awful but after that we went back to some ceramic tiles and i didn't have any issues scoring those!!

    As someone who over-thinks to all hells before starting a(anything at all) project,this video has been massively helpful,and I loved the camera work as well as the added information because I would think,"why..-" and then you would explain it or later on you would,or you sometimes say,"you might be thinking,'why'.." and then you just magically explain the thing!! Thank you so much,this is a very information-rich video for a beginner,and I am currently still going to be breaking up 2 layers of tile before I start my entry and back entry flooring,but thank you so much for alleviating future dilemmas with tools and techniques!

    As a professional tile setter of 15 years glass is the most difficult. I use a premium snap or score cutter and it will leave a far cleaner cut than the wet saw every time. When I have to use the wet saw I polish the front and back of the tile to clean the chips up and make it smooth. The last thing I’ve found to work well is get a color match caulk, when you set the inside corner put a bead of caulk on the back side of the tile right at the edge so when you put the tiles up it gives a perfect reveal. Cheers

I've done plenty of tile work on flat surfaces, but nothing with openings like the shower in the new bathroom. I feel so much more confident now. Now that I've discovered your channel I will be back for more as I tackle more projects in our new home. Thank you.

    There were a few left over bits from a large tiling job, which I was really keen on getting sorted. Our tiler is so busy it'll take him months to come. When looking for a mitre wet saw (!) I came across your video and thought I might as well try it myself. I do have an angle grinder, even with a blade for ceramics and made decent cuts right away. This video of yours was a great motivation to just do it myself. Thanks!

    I just wanted to say thank you for all your videos. I just did a major remodel on my upstairs and did 90% of it on our own thanks to you. Saved me literally tens of thousands of dollars. Thank you thank you thank you. Just wanted you to know. Oh, and something you might want to mention on your videos is...if you are doing it yourself, you are saving enough money to screw up a bunch, learn and fix things. My 'screw up dollars' were in total a little less than $200. I offset that by doing all of this myself. Thank you again.
