Can anyone get me a discount or a good price on puzzle mat flooring? We are building a "homo dojo" and will be covering 12 wide by about 18' long (the last two feet wide we have to cut around support posts every 8 feet) ... therefore we were leaning toward puzzle mats.
What do you think? |

Hate training on Puzzle mats, they expensive. (Probably everything is...) laying down a wooden floor would be better maybe, but spendy also. _________________ "We don't have any money, so we will have to think" - Ernest Rutherford |

Wal-Mart actually has some good deals on puzzle mats. _________________ Sandan in Ryukyu Kempo

I saw homedepot and walmart, and that is an option. To Bulltahr point I don't mind laying down a floor and just using mats as needed .. we were mostly concerned about too much weight and it being too cold .... being over a deck (which now has a roof) |

I have an area about that big in my basement covered with tatami tiles. I think they have just about the right amount of give for me, and the price wasn't too bad when I got them. _________________ 5th kyu Shuri-Ryu, 4th kyu Judo, shodan Uechi-Ryu |
