First question... What tile are you going to be laying on the floor? This will determine what kind of mud job you do. Small 1x1 tiles or river rock on a mesh backing will allow you to conform to the slope necessary to drain. I am old school and use copper pans with adjustible drain. I have heard good things about the rubber liners that can be topped with mud, or the pre formed slope wedges that you cut to size and then have a light layer of mud. Just mever used them. I usually sub out the mudjob to my tile guy. Call me if you want a name. But I realize this is a DIY forum and that you want to reduce costs. I have a monster tile saw too....MK101 if you need it, Mike.
