@mcgaugh57 I personally own three wet saws and the smallest was less than 100 dollars and fits on a table top.  Wet saw is the way to go. And agreed, with tiles that small score and snap is "iffy".

[mcgaugh57]

@Solarpassive Still wet saw is the way to go here, cutting 1" tiles with a score and snap method is iffy at best.

@fanspeed1956 There is NO reason to put that much thin set under those tiles. It will cause the possibility of deflection from plane while installing them.

@mcgaugh57 I agree, either a tile saw or a real glass cutter, its a tool easily found at the hardware store. It is not a nipper. You scribe the tile, then place a piece of wire on a table and lay the wire under the scribe mark. Hold down one side of the glass then tap the other side with a proper mallet and the tile breaks right on the line.

@Solarpassive Not following you, I said use a tile saw not nippers.

[Solarpassive]

@mcgaugh57 No, never nip glass tiles. Use either a wet saw or a glass cutter. That makes no sense at all. A proper glass cutter is a wheel on the end of a shaft with different size notches in the opposite end. Less than 10 dollars.

Excuse me, but the cement backer unit should already be installed on the walls. I do not understand why you did that the way you did. Interesting. If you use the proper trowel then you do not need to remove excess thin set from between the tiles. I always dry set the tiles. I mean no offense, however, I have been doing tile since 1988. Over all, I wont like or dislike. Wondering why The center of the drain is not the starting point... Solarpasive
