All items from Aberfeldy Tool Library

Tile or glass nipper, used for making irregular cuts or trimming small pieces of tile or glass.

How to Use:

1. Preparation:

If cutting tile, score the tile or glass along the desired line using a tile scorer or cutter. 

2. Positioning:

Place the tile or glass between the jaws of the nipper, aligning the cutting wheels or blades with the scored line or the area you want to trim. 

3. Cutting/Nipping:

Hold the nipper like scissors and gently squeeze the handles to apply pressure and break or trim the material. For precise cuts, maintain even force.
