Great project.

Nice job Dan. How did you come up with the idea for framing tiles and creating these framed pieces you have posted? I like the look of them.

The tiles in your projects are rare and beautiful. Motivated by your posting, I have posted some pictures of projects that I’ve made that have inset tiles. These are pretty different from your projects, but maybe you’ll enjoy seeing them anyway.
