How to cut a 'Precut' tile?

OnePound

Hi, I have obtained these tiles (or very simmilar style) and am wondering how to cut them. Has anyone had experenence using these? They are the style with grooves already cut, I want to half the size of most of them but cannot, as with a normal tile, score into the glossy coating to create a line to break.
Thanks for any info...

Snap cutter will do them no problem

I am too moneysaving to buy one of those, is there another way?

I have some snapcutters but they are two small to reach to the middle of the tile

You need a decent cutter with a larger wheel

Topps used to offer a cutting service

Yes pick different tiles that you can use your existing cutter with. Otherwise its a wetcutter or a larger snapcutter. Simples.

dont confuse Money saving with foolish,

Penny wise - pound foolish.

You could end up breaking so many tiles by using the incorrect tools that it would have been cheaper and easier to buy the wet cutter straight out.

A wet cutter will give a superior finish, allow more complicated cuts, and cut wastage down.

If you might ever do more tiling, I would recomend you get a half decent wet cutter (something like)

as the smaller cheaper ones can struggle with hard natural stone or porcelain tiles

No confusion at all, as there is a back up plan with very little cutting. Halfing the tiles though would be mega money saving if I could find an economic way to do it. Seem there is not or at least known here.
Thanks for the replies

get some tile patterned wallpaper if you don't have the correct tools, you only need scissors for that
