What's the best way to cut porcelain tiles for the curved area along the front of the tub. I will be using 12 x 12 porcelain tiles. I was thinking I could use my angle grinded with diamond blade to get the basic shape then use tile knippers to finish it but I have a feeling it's not going to be a very smooth looking cut. Any ideas?

If it is a small arc towards the edge of the tile I use the nippers. If it more into the area of the tile I make cuts into the tile towards the line I have drawn with the wet saw the finish off with nippers.

Thanks,

That's kind of what I figured.
