Cutting Mat

I picked up this cutting mat from Hobby Lobby a few days ago.

It is a big mat and only $10.99.  I got two small ones from the same company weeks ago and they have held up well from constant use.  I got them as a test to see if it was worth it to get the big one.

It was worth it and this is how large it is.

Warning label because everything will kill you.

California requires a warning on anything that could cause cancer.  I bought this anyway, I accept the danger.
 

Cutting Mat

My cutting mats were looking very ratty.

So it was time to get some new ones.

On a recent trip to Hobby Lobby I picked up two of these.

Apparently I should not chew on them.

These were pretty inexpensive and are quite thick.
 

Cutting Mat

I got a couple old cutting mats.

Not so bad on the back side.

Cut a bit off the top.

When my old toaster oven died, I got the metal tray.

The old cutting mat will be cut up and used to line the metal tray.

So I can use it for cutting, or for painting.  It provides a more self-contained and portable workspace.  Did the cutting of the mat with a large #2 X-Acto knife blade and a big pair of scissors.
