: The next time, do your rough grinding with a iron pipe end cap to about 90% of the depth and then cast the tile tool with the tiles in the plaster rather than glued on afterwords. The tiles will stay attached and due to the preliminary grinding of the curvature into the glass with the iron pipe end you'll have plenty of tile left when you get done with the mirror. : Whenever you attach a tile, you need to grind it back to where the rest of them are. Towards the end, just leave the tile or two that fall out out as no real harm will result. Adding more epoxy between the tiles will tend to migitate the problem. Good luck. Ok ... 1 more question .. I have several pounds of "Tuff Stone" Dental plaster to play with (www.prevest.com).. and my blank down to .060 ,with target of .080'ish. How would one cast a tool with the tiles embedded ??? .I have searched the web and cant find any page that clearly describes how to do this. A link to a descriptive page would suffice as I know your a very busy guy !! (I can relate)
