Discuss Where to do the CUTS/ in the America Tile Forum / Advice Board area at TilersForums.com.

Hi everybody, I am about to lay my patio, 60x60cm porcelain tiles. I have just checked on where my slabs will finish as the turn the corner of the house. I would assume ideally perfectly to the corner would be best. Mine would finish 40cm past the end of the house. Would I be best adjusting where I start from to get the slab perfectly lined with the end of the house as it turns to my alley way? To get perfect here I would have to cut 1st slab. What would be best? Cut 1st slab or go past end of house? Is there a rule of thumb here? Thanks regards David.
PS: Is the slurry mix only workable for 30 minutes? Can it not be kept and used the following day or would it have set and be unusable ?
