Hi Folks

I Have Seen those green cutting mats in a few of your workshops now. I know them cause my girlfriend is quilting and uses them for cutting fabric with a rotary cutter. I always thought about using one for cutting leather but was afraid I would damage the mats, since cutting leather needs more force and the blades are sharper. What are your experiences with thos mats? Do they work? Do you have to be careful not to cut through them? How long can u use them before you have to replace them?

Greetings

Jonathan

First post here. I love this site!! My brain is overwhelmed with the new things I have learned from fellow crafters.

The bar area in my unfinished man-cave is where I am currently set up. I took this pic today. It is a bit messy at the moment because this is where it all happens. I have just finished 2 cool projects - a Drum Stick Quiver that attaches to a set, and forearm gauntlets carved with a cool CFH design that was made by a graphic artist that will do the final painting work. I'll post those in the critique forum soon.

I have been looking at some of these fabulous workshops here and have many ideas in how I am going to build out my long term workshop. Thanks for all of the ideas!

Chris

Shop in a Box,

Well its not the whole shop, but it has been a great way for me to move around especially when it turns cold can move in out of the cold garage.

Just thought I would share.

I posted pictures of my shop back in 2008 when i was working out of my basement. I thought I would post pictures of my new shop that I built a year later.
