Nope. Wet saw.

Spoke to the rental place, but I'm too cheap to meet their price for
the little bit I had to do. Wound up using the diamond disk in the
dremel. Worked out ok, need to stop once in a while to let things
cool down. lots of dust.

If I ever have to do more than a few, it'll be wet saw for sure.

Tile nippers are what is normally used for real mosaic work.

The wet saw is for the straight cuts.

Depends. I have used a wet saw to nibble some small pieces into odd shapes.
You just have to be very careful.

To the OP: Watch for a wet saw at yard sales, etc. They are incredibly
handy, even if you only need one once a year, and will pay for itself on the
first job. The one I got cost me $10 at a yard sale, and it's a major brand
that costs about $280 at the Borg. Makes the job go a lot easier, and
better results.
