The only critique I would have is to say when you go to snap your tile. Place your bumpers as close to the end of the tile as possible in order to get the best separation. He snapped his about 6 inches up the tile which will allow for inconsistent chipping on the edges. If for some reason the tile will not separate, place pressure with your hand on one side of the tile and slam your hand down quickly on the other side of the scribed line. You should rarely ever have to do this. Mainly only when working with both thick and large format tile. Happy-Snappin'

That all comes down to what type of tile it is unfortunately. Some tiles just cut better than others
