metro tiles
Şişhane is an underground station on the M2 line of the Istanbul Metro. The station is located under Meşrutiyet Street in Beyoğlu, Istanbul. Şişhane has an entrance to Istanbul's famous İstiklâl Caddesi as well as entrances to Kasımpaşa. An out-of-system connection is available to the historic Tünel funicular line as well as the T2 tram line. Many city buses that run along Tarlabaşı Boulevard are just a few blocks away from Şişhane's Kasımpaşa portal. Şişhane was opened on 31 January 2009 along with Atatürk Oto Sanayi on the northern part of the line. Between 2009-14 trains from Şişhane would operate as a shuttle to Taksim and back. When the M2 was extended south to Yenikapı in 2014, trains operated normally traversing the full line.

Cracks in newly finished bathroom metro tiles
Hi I’d be very grateful for advice. I had a bathroom fitted a couple of months ago and have just noticed that many of the metro tiles have spidery cracks in them. There is no pattern to them - some cracks run up through a couple of tiles but they’re not all adjacent. I’m sure they weren’t there...- Roadrunner

Metro tiles and corners
Hi, first post and a question about Metro tiles. Never used these before but I'm thinking about the corners. Is it correct to assume that, for the full length tiles, I should remove the natural 'bevel' before cutting the 45 degree 'bevel' for the corners?- bigusrobus

When to remove spacers (metro tiles)
If poking spacers in between metros (leaving them sticking out the front) is it better to remove them before the adhesive has set rather than trying to pull them out the next day after compression? If so is there a good way to tell when is safe to do without the tiles moving?- cornsack
