Tile abrasive block

[Welderpaul]

I bought a Rubi tile rubbing block for taking the razor sharp edge off tiles when they have been scored and snapped. Rubi is a decent make of tiling gear, but this is just like a carborundum block and pretty useless.

A file is no good as it tends to dig in. A block can be rubbed flat along the tile.

Any sugegstions?..

I used the Lidl version of that diamond 'stone' for tiles and glass.
