I'm laying ceramic floor tiles and have been using a flat bed tile cutter. Is there any way of cutting 'L' shapes into the tiles with this or do I need to use another piece of equipment? If so what will I need?
Thanks

If you mean a score and snap type cutter then I'm afraid not. You'll need a diamond blade in either a wet table saw or (my favourite) an angle grinder.
