Thomas has a really nice cutting mat and knife set, I'll ask what he uses next time we're home together
He highly recommends Olfa for a cutting mat. They're durable and extremely reasonably priced....Fiskars for a back-up plan, though they are much more expensive
Either way, be sure to get self-healing!

Thomas also makes awesome english muffins.

what? aren't they?
instead of a square, i'm going to order an alumicolor 8" 30-60-90 triangle at the msu bookstore. it should be about $5.

i just ordered the 10" version. my favorite person who works in the art department of the bookstore is leaving! :( it's pretty sad times.
i just got an alvin self-healing 18" x 24" cutting mat for $11.55.
earlier today i was cutting cardboard on my carpet, so this is a welcomed purchase.
