ABSTRACT:
A manually-operated tile cutter comprises mainly a base, a measuring piece, and a guiding bar. The base is provided at one end thereof with a stopper consisting of a stopper face perpendicular to the cutting direction and of a guide slot parallel to the stopper face. The measuring piece is composed of a length measuring portion and an angle measuring portion disposed at one end of the length measuring portion. The length measuring portoin is disposed slidably in the guide slot. The guiding bar is pivotally arranged on the angle measuring portion so as to point out on the angle measuring portion the angle formed by the guiding bar and the length measuring portion. The cutter therefore guides and holds the tile intended to be cut in a vertical manner. The guiding bar can be also used to point out the angle and to support the tile when the cutter is doing an angular cutting of the tile.
