Could some one let me know what the best practice if one to issue a cutplane before or after a object is created?

Can you be a little more specific? I'm not sure what you are asking.

Wondering is it better to issue a cutplane before the object or create a object then issue a cutplane? Just curious.

Example:

Block 1,1,1

cutplane 90

cutend
or

cutplane 90

block 1,1,1
cutend

CUTPLANE/CUTEND is an inclusive command pair, just like IF/ENDIF. It only has an effect on things inside it.

Your first sequence would not have any effect on the block.
