A hammer is used to smash ceramic tiles (and some
glass tiles) into irregular
pieces.
Place the tiles on one side of a towel and the fold the other side of
the towel over the top of the tiles. Hit the tile with the face of the
hammer. Open the towel and remove any pieces you like. Be careful to check the
tiles over each time you smash them as they become very small and splintery very
quickly.
This tool is great if you want a mosaic that is irregular and if you are just
interested to see what shapes you can make. I wouldn't recommend it for a mosaic
that required straight edges and clean lines throughout.
