I'm tiling the toilet floor, only there's a soil pipe in the way! I
saw these circular cutters that look like something from a gerbil's
cage but they only go up to about 90mm and of course soil pipes are
that little bit bigger. I thought cutting a hole and plonking it over
the top would be prettier than cutting a chunk out of a tile, albeit
that it will be hidden behind the toilet. Just wondered if anyone had
seen a larger (say to 6 inch diameter) tile cutter?

What about a tile-cutting blade in a jig saw?

That's what I used. It took a whole packet of 5 jigsaw blades
to cut two semi-circular holes in a pair of ceramic floor
tiles. I clamped the jigsaw upside down in the Workmate and
moved the tiles carefully against the blade. Floor tiles
knacker the blades.
