Mosaic fitting advice - "dogtooth" confusion

[dean jones]

Thanks for everyone's help and advice. Went with both methods in the end ("dogtooth" wooden jig to bring it level and 3mm trowel for most areas. Flat screed layer and pushing the mosaic onto it for tricky to reach places) and skipped the mesh. Pretty good all in all and almost finished grouting too. Decided to grout mosaics separately from all the rest of the tiles.

will get around to it when it's done. Not tempting fate just yet, as need to refit all furniture and how it goes back into place. Also, posting on a tillers forum I'll be putting my head over the parapet, and no doubt, will get it blown off with a shotgun! Chuffed so far, but then it's my DIY eye, which is squited compared with your guys 20/20 vision!
