Default buy or rent a tile cutter?

Well, it does depend on what kind of tiles you're using. I bought the
$80 thing from Home Depot, and I have to say it worked quite well for
my basic 4" and 6" porcelain bathroom tiles. It also worked on some
13" floor tiles I trimmed for another job. It isn't quite as fast or
powerful as a serious $200 unit, but if you're not cutting 1/2" thick
travertine, it should be fine.

Then, you have another tool around in case someday you do another tile
job.
