Could I get some opinions on a way to consistently cut (2") tiles with

greatest ease, speed, and low cost. I've been using a large square to
make
my marks =3D and then cutting=3D20 with a fettling knife or needle tool.
Very
time consuming to continue =3D this way.
In the near future I'll be making thousands of them.


Any comments will be much appreciated.

Tom...... If your talking thousands....... I would invest in a metal or
wooden grid that you could roll out the clay over & then scrape off the
excess or maybe a cookie cutter gizmo. Do you have a slab roller? Good
luck , Mike Gordon
