CLIPS is a public domain software tool for building expert systems. The name is an acronym for "C Language Integrated Production System." The syntax and name were inspired by Charles Forgy's OPS5. The first versions of CLIPS were developed starting in 1985 at NASA-Johnson Space Center (as an alternative for existing system ART*Inference) until the mid-1990s when the development group's responsibilities ceased to focus on expert system technology. The original name of the project was "NASA's AI Language" (NAIL).
CLIPS was probably the most widely used expert system tool as of 2005. CLIPS itself is written in C, extensions can be written in C, and CLIPS can be called from C. Its syntax resembles that of the programming language Lisp.CLIPS incorporates a complete object-oriented language for writing expert systems. COOL combines the programming paradigms of procedural, object oriented and logical (theorem proving) languages.
Currently I don’t use leveling clips. Having read about them and seen threads on here I’m considering using them. If I you get a better finish and quicker then why not?
When do you guys use them?
- size type of tile
- wall / floor
- do they mean that the surface to be tiled need not be as...
Hello all,
I have a job this week doing a kitchen splash back and window reveal. The wall behind hob has a boxed in section which means extra cutting. I had originally planned and customer agreed that they wanted mitred externals. They have now changed their mind and want to use white round...
Hi folks, new to the forum and I'm a DIY novice with no tiling experience to speak of. Been reading through the forum recently and got some great tips and I'm considering a tiling course further down the line.
Quick question for those with more experience; started tiling my kitchen splashback...
Does anyone ever get adhesive shrinking?
Let’s say you tile half a wall, go back the next day to tile the rest and once the second lot of tiles has set, it’s shrunk back ever so slightly.
I’m not talking about a thick bed of adhesive either. Or too much water in the mix.
I’m wondering if...
Hello looking for a bit of advice. I’m planning on doing a splash back above my sink. So far I have the tiles and trim. Was wondering what’s the best adhesive and grout to use as there is glass tiles on the mosaic sheet and I’ve also heard that the tiles need treated with something after the...
I'm going back to talking about self-leveling clips. (systems with wedge, the other me, I do not use them)
I see photos in the internet, where many clips are inserted.
sometimes it seems exaggerated.
in a 120cm tile put 5/6 / 7clips ...
now I get to the point.
it's worth spending little money on...
Evening good people, I’ll soon be fixing some large porcelain tiles 600 x 1200s to an area of about 80 Sqmt. My question is how many of both clips and wedges would one order for such an area?
Also im planning on using a 3mm joint throughout so is it recommended that I should buy 1mm clips for...
We have just had a slate backsplash installed all round the kitchen benchtops. The builder sealed it with 2 coats of Tasmanian Chemicals Premium Long Life Gloss, which the slate supplier had sold us for that specific job. Unfortunately, steam from the kettle left a plume of white glaze across...
I’ve had arguments with ‘tilers’ who tell me that levelling clips are a gimmick and they’re not needed. Well look what happened to some plonker who said this to me. The floor without the clips is obvious and by pure coincidence I finished one yesterday were clips were used. I got a call by a...
As the title. I have my daughters kitchen splashback to tile.
In the examples Ive seen the worktops seem to be taken as level and full tiles (metro) form the bottom layer.
My question is how do you address if the worktop is not level? Do you mark a line about half a metro up and cut the bottom...

I've been using clips more frequently these days due to tile size, rectified edge tiles etc... trouble is over the month they can be quite expensive if you're using them on several jobs. Question is do you charge for the clips or not?
Hi there,
My wife and I are doing our basement and purchased tile through a reputable company who did the install. They finished today and I am not very pleased with the results and am looking for some opinions on the quality of the work.
We were told this tile is not grouted, yet as you can...

Hi,
I'm looking for some tips on installing mosaic sheets, they are going to be installed in a kitchen as spashbacks. I'm looking for advice on planning and how to cut them in around sockets. Also how to get them flat to the wall without them dipping and bowing out. I think they are glass...
Hi I have been working in New Zealand where I used tile wedges from a company called TileMax - they had them made by a company in China. They were bigger than any others i have found in the UK. They are about 80mm long by 15mm wide by 12mm tall, the only ones i can get here are 50mm by 8mm by...

See photo... is this standard preparation for a mosaic glass splash back in the bathroom?
The wall was freshly painted.
Will this need now to be skimmed or can the tiles be applied immediately to this surface with some good adhesive? Is a mesh of some sort required for alignment?
The tiles...
Has anyone tried these yet they look like a direct copy of RLS, but I'm wondering how the quality compares?

I had a old customer ring last week asking if you could tile onto these coloured glass splashback panels in a kitchen.
I said yes but I'd find out what the best preparation and adhesive would be.
So is it possible and what's the method?
