Cuting 25mm x 50mm mosaic glass tile...anyone with a good technique?
I got some to install and pretty sure I will have to cut a few strips, I tried grinder and diamond wheel, but not great, got a 2 wheel nipper, and although seems okay to cup a single piece into two square 25mm x 25mm, cutting them into 2 rectangle of 12,5 mm x 50mm seems not to split them equally and also seems to damage back color and also glass.
I guess the best way is with a wet saw but I don't have...I just need to cut a few.
I was thinking maybe my grinder technique is not good, as I try to cut them thru all the way, may be I should mark them with the grinder and then try to snap in two. Anyway thanks for sharing your technique.

If only a few, you could contact a local glazier and see what they would charge to do the cuts once you marked them.

I cut mine with my regular tile cutter. Just the same as sheet glass , score once and snap.
