Abstract

This invention is related to an adaptable tile-cutter apparatus for scoring and breaking disparately-sized tiles. The apparatus broadly includes: a pair of end castings removably; a rigid crossbeam and a travel rail spanning the pair of end castings; vertical-adjustment mechanisms mounted to the travel rail; one or more platform assemblies each coupled to the rigid crossbeam; and a cutting mechanism slidably engaged to the travel rail. The vertical-adjustment mechanisms individually adjust a height of the travel rail with respect to the pair of end castings. In addition, the rigid crossbeam and the travel rail comprise a first matched set, and are each removably coupled to the pair of end castings. Accordingly, a second matched set that includes another rigid crossbeam and another travel rail possessing lengths at variance with the rigid crossbeam and the travel rail of the first matched set may be interchanged therewith.
