I need to buy a new one. Ran over the last one with the car and snapped the plastic at the start.

While we are on the subject of mats how do you get one to straighten out when it's creased? mine just doesn't seem to want to and it makes life extremely difficult when it's just me.

Could you put a tea towel on top and run the iron over it? Or would it still be too hot and melt?

Sit it flat in the sun, then roll it up, don't fold it

A quick roll in the opposite direction when you pull it out usually gets it good enough to use

Looking forward to this comp. Even bought a brag mat today and added the species comp to my signature.

Didn't get to use the new mat today. Don't think a 4" redfin would have set the world on fire!
