Re: [RC] Cutting Stall Mats - Sisu West Ranch

Rubber is relatively easy to cut if you know the secret. Get a utility knife and supply of blades. If you want to cut straight, clamp a straight edge on the mat. Turn on the garden hose and flood the area to be cut with water. The water facilitates stress cracking so the rubber will cut with the knife rather easily.

I usually find that after the initial cut, that goes only part way through, I can bend the mat to further stress the rubber and make the cutting easier.
