Waterproof CNC Router Cutting bed

I've been looking for the trespa Athlon stuff, I was quoted £90 plus VAT for a bloody off cut 600x400.

I'll drop you some off over Xmas.

Ok, I've got my eye on this thing. Just not sure if it's thick enough.
Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/331996752740

There is some bigger stuff on eBay but thinner and was used for bogs, so might be full of scratch and sniff.

Ok, i bought an old Trespa Athlon lab worktop and man, it's the ducks guts. I didn't realise how solid this is until I started cutting it with a circular saw to get it in the car.
I've got a 2000x700 piece left to sell if someone wants it. It's a 16mm thick sheet.
Thanks to all for their input.

Great! Also just FIY this stuff is incredible for molds, as it keeps very good dimension and has very good resollution when fine cut with small bits. Say you need some gears made or you design sth. Cut it inside the sheet, then pour PU and there you have it.

Should try lifting 12' x 6' x 20mm weighs more than your car. . Lol

Great tip, I'll keep that in mind!
