Default Can you cut curves out of a tile with an angle grinder?

Hi,

saw this review
http://www.dooyoo.co.uk/house_garden...decker_angle_g
rinder/_review/288127/
or

Not clear if they were straight or curved cuts.

Anyone cut curves with an angle grinder?

This is for large, thin bathroom ceramic tiles.

TIA

Best go to B&Q and get their new Trim Cutter and extra's for £60. Well
worth it.

I've done it with a diamond wheel tile cutter. You cut radii? close
together then snap off the 'spikes'. Then clean up the edge - if needed -
with a curved stone or ceramic file.
