The first step to any successful tile installation is the layout. Tile is a permanent surface that you will have to live with for many years...you'll want to get it right the first time!
Many problems arise simply from not knowing how to measure and layout the area. There are many books and courses that explain other aspects of tile jobs such as setting materials, tools, tear down, etc. Proper layout of the tile job is the single most important factor that separates an amateur from a professional.

Oregon's contrasting physical features are characterized by great forested mountain slopes and treeless basins, rushing rivers and barren playas, lush valleys and extensive wastelands. The major determinant for these unusual climatic differences is the Cascade Range, a rugged mountain chain running north to south c.100 mi (160 km) inland. As the eastward-moving air masses, warmed by the Alaska Current and heavy with moisture from the Pacific Ocean, rise and meet the cooler mountain temperatures, rain is precipitated over the western third of Oregon. Dry air and continental climate prevail over the eastern two thirds of the state.
