The Quilted Bear 7-inch Locking Rotating Mat

What this tool is for

This small mat is useful at a class table or beside a machine when you trim little units. The lock lets you choose between turning the surface and holding it still. Compare it to a larger rotating model if you commonly square blocks that cover most of a 7-inch area.

Fit and buying advice

Keep enough space for the piece, the guide and the cutting line. A portable square mat is a separate tool from a wide board intended to support yardage.
