AS I WAS IN THE TOWN LAST WEEK I WENT TO A £1 SHOP IN THE USA YOU CALL IT THE 99 CENT SHOP. THERE I SAW A MAT AND IT WAS 3 FT X 1 FT IT WAS MAINLY TO USE IN KITCHEN UNITS SHELFS AS PROTECTION TO TIN CANS. I CUT A PIECE AND THOUGHT I WOULD USE IT ON MY WORK BENCH.I PUT A PIECE OF TIMBER ON IT AND USED MY ROUTER AND PLANER TO SEE IF IT HELD?IT WORKED!. AND NOW I HAVE BOUGHT 2 MORE ROLES IN DIFFERENT COLOURS RED FOR MY SHARPENING STONES TO SIT ON,WHITE FOR TIMBERS TO BE ROUTERED OR PLANED. ALSO THEY NOW DO IT ON A ROLL 4 FT WIDE X HOW EVER MUCH YOU WANT CUT OFF. SAVES PAYING OUT FOR EXPENSIVE MATS .
