Thanks Russ for the review ... Ive been following these items from Js works for a while. It was also interesting to see your experiment with thin and thick mixes. Im not fully sold on this idea yet. Im wondering how these tiles are in comparison to lollipop sticks cut off at similar lengths. Wider? thicker? The lollipop sticks dont need as much clean up.

My second batch was a little thinner than the sticks. I think the main benefit with these are the nail hole dimples and the appearance of broken tiles.
