The tiles were modeled in Solidworks, and then applied to a model in Maya as a test. A few iterations were required to get the thickness of the tiles right.
The acrylic was first surfaced to an exact thickness, so that the tiles would be held together by a very thin film of acrylic while being machined. 6 different colors of tiles were machined, making a colorful mess! 
Once finished the tiles were carefully removed from the machine, broken from surrounding material, and sanded to clean up the edges.
