    I saw this at Hobby Lobby a couple weeks ago and said yes I need that! It is a nice mat. Great for modeling and my electronics (guitar effects pedals)!

    Nice find Paul (subscribed) HEY! @hobbylobby #hobbylobby I am going to buy two of these things tomorrow because of THIS video! Two things, they need to sponsor your channel and they need to pay who ever came up with thing a nice bonus. I am going to pick up two of them tomorrow! I sometimes work in a small, shared space remotely (from my main shop) and something like this is perfect. Thank you for the unbox and review.

    Thanks for the head’s up! As with most product when I’m first introduced to them, I hopped on Amazon to see if it was offered, and how much it was. Amazon does offer it, but it’s $4 more. Now I do shop at Hobby Lobby, but I like to compare prices. I really appreciate you telling everyone about this product. Thanks for sharing!

    I was at Hobby Lobby today and was tempted to get one but didn't. After seeing this I will grab one next time I'm there! Would be great for cleaning the airbrush too.

    You can put a standard cutting mat in the center for using knives. A razor blade will go straight thru it. I have one in mine and it fits perfectly.

    • @pauly7218

      on the contrary, the soldering / electronic versions (original) are twice the price.

    • @Ozarktrains

    If you look for "silicone mat electronics" you will find a large range, with a large variety of layouts, usually in a more rest-full blue. Silicone mats are also heat resistant for those who solder.

    It's a great mat, but I'm not sure I like the big raised square in the middle of the mat like that. I'd think you'd want it flat. Does that seem like it'll be an issue? For $10 I may just check it out anyway...

    • @pauly7218
