|  Screw catcher workmat on the cheap!
Was hoping to win one from CowRC. In the meantime I was able to put this together for right around $15. Picked up a heavy duty cutting mat on 40% off sale and a piece of 1/4" styrene at a local craft shop. Didn't take to long to cut it out and glue it together. I haven't got to test it out yet, but I am pretty happy with the results so far.   |

I used a couple carpenter squares to do the layout. Then just used a scalpel with a fresh blade and a steady hand to cut it out.

Cuts are not perfect for sure, but good enough to still look good I think.
