Is it Calibrated or hand split.?

[Rob01]

the tile are in a pattern sort of brick work pattern say around 10 little tiles stuck together in a a stagerd pattern which you then put the other 1 next to to match up type thing quite hard to explain.

[Rob01]

calibrated i would of thorght

[Dave]

So mosaics then..?

[Rob01]

yeah but with out the mesh.

[Dave]

So what holds these 10 little tiles together..??

The weber adhesive will be fine..

[Rob01]

it looks like each tile has been glued together you can see the marks on the back would you recommened 6-8 mill notched trowel or somthing different?

[Dave]

If the tiles are around 10mm thick then ye the 8mm would be my choice.

[Rob01]

yeah they are a fairly thick tile i would say at least 10mill thick
