Anyone find a good source for cheap garage floor mats? Need to cover about 300sqft and would love to avoid paying through the nose lol… Maybe I’m looking in the wrong places but it seems like flooring mats are shockingly expensive. Am I just out of touch?

Honestly, I’d just watch Facebook marketplace. People move and don’t want to take the mats. I scored enough to go around my saw and outfeed /assembly table for nothing.

It’s just general foot comfort/anti-fatigue. I actually don’t need them; a neighbor was moving and forced them on me. But they are nice!

What type of mats are you looking for? I did rubber mats in my gym… about 200 sq ft… and it cost me about $550 for 1/2inch. I think it was about 20% less for 3/8th inch.

What is the purpose of the mats? How tough they need to be will determine suggestions.

Have you looked at horse stall mats?

Another possibility, depending on where you live, is used conveyor belt. These are usually long ~3ft strips but are incredibly tough and cheap if you can find the right place to buy them from.

Wanted to share some advice for anyone looking at track saws. I just bought the bare WEN 6.5” unit ($145.29) and paired it with the Powertec guide rail set ($119.89) and came away with a solid setup at a (comparatively) cheap price ($265).

I was considering the Makita ($585) or Dewalt ($790) setups since those are my normal go-to brands, but couldn’t stomach the cost.

Highly recommend it!
