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.

Recently, i was "promoted" or, I should say, my title was changed to the next ring up the ladder. As a part of this, I went from reporting to Senior Management, to Junior Management. The Jr. Manager has good intentions, but, is not helpful. I've worked at the company longer, have accomplished more across multiple lines of business and have a much stronger internal network. Am I overreacting thinking this is a major slight that will ultimately slow down my growth within the company?

PSA: Jet and Powermatic are having supply chain issues. Ordered a jet dust collector in March with an April delivery date. Woodcraft has pushed it back every month and their current best estimate is July 7th (though they are still advertising a June ship date). Just keep that in mind if you have any sense of immediacy around your purchasing needs.
