Hi I'm technomadness and I'm a refugee...

Rubber stall mats from TSC . 4 ft X 6 ft X 3/4 thick

I might use that or something like it, as my top layer flooring.   Especially if I can’t find something like a vinyl version of wood.

One of the challenges is that instead of building a permanent chair, I’m planning to use a rolling executive chair.  

In my current layout when sitting I’ll be sitting right at the passthru of the cab to cabin area.  A rolling chair lets my not block the passthru.

But these chairs transfer their weight to 6-8 wheels so they can make dimples in softer material.

So something like plywood works to spread that weight out.

The mats are only $30+/- I can tell you from experience they are pretty darn stiff. I've rolled around on creepers with them under a vehicle many times. Used them to protect the driveway from oil etc. . But they were too soft to support a floor jack with a vehicle weight on it. But then that's alot of weight in a small points of contact with mat.

Sounds ideal. I wonder if they can be cut with a saw without melting.

They would help spread the load out, and 4’x6’ is a good size. Let’s see if there’s a Tractor Supply nearby.

Thanks!
