    Default Where do you get a large cutting mar

    Would like a fairly large mat that will fit a folding table. Maybe 48x72 or so. Has any one seen these? Thanks

    Here is a link to an earlier discussion:
    custom cutting mat - rhino vs magic mat-anyone have either of these?

    I use two mats on the cutting table. They fit side by side and can be moved if needed. I line up the measurements and add some painters tape underneath. The tape keeps them in line. Generally, I'm not cutting more than across the WOF (approx 22 inches) so this works for me.

    Be sure to check the marking lines as they vary between brands. Some are more user friendly. Some brands are short on the 24 side of mat.

    33x58 and I got it at Joanne’s with a coupon. Fits perfectly on an old Formica table downstairs.

    I got a large one from Joann's. I used a 50% off coupon and it was very reasonable.

    www.bigmatrotarycuttingsurface.com Click on the big mat store and scroll down until you see a listing of different sizes. Think it comes with a 5-year warranty. Mine did. I had a 36x60 mat from JoAnn's years ago, but I found the rotary blades got dull quickly and had to be replaced more frequently. I switched to the big mat a few years ago. No regrets there.

    I have the Olfa green ones (3) that fit together with clips. I've had them for years and usually don't even put all three on the table at once.

    I have the 24 x 36 Quilter's Select mat on top of a Sullivan's 33 x 58 mat and a smaller mat on top of those. I don't need the big mat that much so use the smaller mats on top of it. I also have the Martelli Roundabout on one end of the table. I have Fiskars, Joanns, Olfa, Polar, and Omnigrid mats of all sizes. I really like he Omnigrid because it has no grid lines. It has the Fons and Porter's brand on it.
