HI Folks

I'd vote for the Morton surface...

- the way it's made, all the tiny glass chips end up in the
'waffle-holes', rather than on the cutting surface, on the glass, in
your thumbs

- clean-up from time to time just uses a hoover or a big plastic 'bin-bag'

- the various Morton 'widgets' make repetitive, accurate cutting easy
(if that's what you're doing)

- glass lies flat on the surface & doesn't slide about

Drawbacks..? - can be more trouble than it's worth if cutting tiny
pieces of glass (for fusing ..?) - so you need a small flat surface also

Wouldn't be without it g

Forget the formica. The glass will slide around on it, making it difficult

One of my worktables is plywood surfaced, the other is carpeted. I've also
seen the Morton surface used successfully.

I'm looking at a table made of a sheet of plywood for cutting on, 1"
thick and very hard, but I've been offered a formica bar countertop. It's
hard and smooth, plus even the smallest flakes and shards will come off
cleanly.
What are you guys using?
