Can anyone recommend a good large poly cutting board, about 24" by 36" or 48"?

Recently, I've started cutting through my 3/8" board that is rather soft. I have one poly cutting board about 18" by 24" that is made for kitchen use, and it's perfect. Nothing I'm using would ever cut through it.

So far this is the best I can come up with on the net: http://www.cutting-mats.net/cutting-mats-1022.html

Ed,

Most good sized towns will have a plastics shop. There are some mail order places too. If they don't stock it, they can usually order cutting board overnight. They will cut to size, and may have remnants sitting around. I got two five gallon buckets of scraps that I make my cell phone molds, and stuff like that out of for free. I like HDPE to cut on, and LDPE to pound/punch against. The HDPE can crack if you hit it enough.

But it isnt for punching holes... just cutting... Use your white poly board for punching holes...

Hope this helps...

I got mine at walmart, but any sewing/fabric shop would have one I would suppose...
