Flip the tile over and align it between the fixed tile and the gap you aim to fill. Use a pencil to mark the top and bottom edges, and extend these marks onto the tile. This marked line will guide your cutting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Remember, <strong>before you cut your tile it<\/strong><\/span><strong>\u2019<\/strong><span data-contrast=\"auto\"><strong>s important to take into consideration the grout joint you will need<\/strong>.&nbsp;Place your tile onto&nbsp;your&nbsp;cutter and score it. Then using the breaker mechanism on your machine, snap it.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Depending on which RUBI manual cutter you have, your breaker mechanism&nbsp;may&nbsp;be set up&nbsp;differently.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559685&quot;:360,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">Large Format Tiles<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Large format tiles come in a wide variety of different designs and colours, making them suitable for a range of different designs and aesthetics.
