cutting pad recommendations

[darkhelmet25]

Hello all,

I'm looking for recommendations a larger (ideally larger than A4) cutting pads. Any suggestions/experience is most appreciated.

Thanks,

Matt

I use a cheap A2 size and it's great. I did use a named brand A3 size one and the only difference was it was slightly thicker (and a lot more expensive) but in performance no difference. How hard are you going to slice down into one??? And their defence against any solvents etc was the same.

The only reason I can see for buying an expensive one would be aesthetic or for the name. For what I spill on them etc I'll stick to a cheaper one.

^Agreed. They're all about the same except for price and size.

Staples/Business Depot have some, Michaels and other arts store will also have them. Decide which size works best for you and grab one up, there's no need to waste money on having one shipped.

I use FISKARS pads, purchased from Michaels, using their discount coupons (up to 60% off). I'd buy them anyway, but the discounted price makes it a complete no-brainer for me.
