Thank you everyone.  It's been real interesting to see the wide variety of responses. I think I have it sorted now.  I'm going to use a combination of some of the above suggestions and will see how I go with that.  Thank you everyone for your impute and help.

I have a large black square of some type of low density poly... I got it out of a box of my dads old leather working stuff from the 80s... I believe its similar if not the same as poundo board... Probably about 3/8" thick. Its pretty flexible, when I found it it had been in a bucket for about 30 years... And was thus curved. I placed it under my tooling rock for 2 days and it flattened right out. I use it for all my punching needs from stitch chisels to hole punches to large end punches. Works great and doesnt damage the cutting edges.
