The rift sawn rip cuts are perpendicular to the center of the log. In woodworking, a rip-cut is to sever or divide a piece of wood parallel to the grain. The other typical type of cut is a cross-cut, a cut perpendicular to the grain. Unlike cross-cutting, which shears the wood fibers, a rip saw works more like a series of chisels, lifting off small splinters of wood.
A tile cutter or tile saw is a better choice. If you need to cut two sides of a tile, follow these steps and then just repeat them for the second cut. Using a tile cutter, place the tile on the cutting surface.Place the cut line over and parallel to the raised metal bar; the fulcrum.Next raise the handle and align the tile precisely with the cutting wheel. Starting on the edge of the tile near you, press the blade down onto the surface of the tile.f you need to cut two sides of a tile, follow these steps and then just repeat them for the second cut.
