Default DIY Comfort Mat

I was tired of my feet becoming sour when I did my gliding. I saw the comfort mats for sale on Inc and thought I could make them. I went to a local store Harbor Freight and bought some floor mats ($9.99 for 4). I also saw them an amazon.com for about $15 if there's not a Harbor Fright near you. There a 1/2 inch thick, the stock ones at Inc are 3/8. Nice and comfy. I then took off my mat as a stencil and traced it. Then started to cut it out with scissors and found out that a razor knife works better. Then used hot melt glue to hold it on. If I need to replace it it comes off EZ but holds it on fine. Works great. OK I know it's not a stock item and it dose not look perfect. But now my feet are no longer sour. I thought I would pass this on to my fellow gliders.

Have a Happy New Year Gliding

Craig

I've put alot of miles on that bad boy.
If you leave a couple of "tabs" you can avoid the glue.

Alan

Unfortunately for you two, not only great minds, but also feeble ones think like that... I even made a set for someone at Jared's get together in September...

Now, these were my first set, for my i2, as you can see. I have moved onto, now hold onto your hats... A black one... (Still aftermarket foam...)

Alan, I was conceeding that you two had the great minds. The feeble comment was an attempt at self depreciating humor...

I am honored that you did not so easily understand that the feeble comment was associated to my mind... Others would not have so much difficulty in calling me that! LOL
