    I'd use Stanley & ruler, but I'm curious as to what others'd use...
    I may be weird, but I'm saving up to become eccentric.

    Thumbs up Cutting Cork Tiles

    Stanley knife & steel ruler, doesn't hurt to keep touching up the edge on a stone at regular intervals. You will need a cutting board underneath though.

    Cool,

    Looks like a stanley and steel rule is the go then but not on the missus dining room table however! Any opinions on glue? i've got a ltex based one from the guy who sold me the tiles. Designed for the job apparently. Anyone got experience using this sort?
