Here's a link.
How do you cut it to size? I'm guessing you don't have to use a system like ceramic, but at the same time it may require something other than bandsaw.

My understanding is that you cut via score and break. The bad thing is that it's a bathroom. The good thing is that it's a small area. You have to buy it by the box of 45, so I'll have plenty of extra pieces to screw up and cuss at before I get it right.

Easiest way to do it is to score it. But you could probably find a cheap tile cutter at Home Depot or Lowes.

I have access to a tile saw, so that's no problem if it will work on it.

If it's a ceramic tile saw it will just rip it up. You need something like a paper cutter type deal.

Gotcha. I was sort of thinking the same thing about an actual tile saw. You're talking about the tile breaker things that look like a paper cutter. I can probably wrangle one of those up as well. Thanks for the advice.

Yeah. You don't want to use a actual saw on VC tile.

I've seen some installers heat it up with a propane torch to soften it and cut it with a utility knife. That said, I'm not sure if that is the manufacturer's recommended method.
