Our accent tiles finally arrived Friday evening via UPS. I started out Saturday afternoon (8/23) putting them up right over the countertop. I used 1/8" spacers to seperate them and cemented them with the same acrylic cement I've used on the floor and countertop.
By Saturday evening, I had gotten the entire row of accent tiles cemented, and about 2/3 of the rest of the backsplash.
I've been cutting the tiles with a conventional sliding-arm mitre saw using a diamond-tipped blade. It's been working fine, but I clean it with a blower and oil it frequently, because the ceramic dust seems to build up very quickly.
As of this evening (8/24), I've gotten the entire backsplash done, and (probably) tomorrow, I'll hit it with some grout.
Pretty nice, yes?
