I ran across something while watching a YouTube video and wanted to pass it on. Sorry if this is well known already. The guy was using a piece of yoga mat in place of a bench mat. It seemed like a really good (and cheap) idea. I went to eBay and bought a bright orange one (so I can easily see small dark parts) for about $7 delivered. I figure based on the size I can replace it 4 or 5 times. It's waterproof and slightly padded. Anyway, I thought it was a good idea and a lot cheaper than the bench mats for sale out there.
