I use cushoned floor mats. The are 2x4 ft.

Go to http://www.rocker.com search for floor mat.

They are on sale now for $10.00 each ( I stack them 2 deep in front of
the lathe).

Happy turning,
Mike

Yes this is on topic,

I would like to ask those of you who have work areas that are on some
form of concrete, what kind of shoes do you wear while there? Do you
use any kind of mats to stand on? Last, but not least are you flat
footed?

No I am not going to try to sell you something, just want to know what
I need to change to help my legs and back while standing in the shop.
Being 300lbs does not help, I know.

I have never really been able to say for sure that being flat footed
has been a problem for me, but I may need to look for different shoes
while standing for long periods of time in the work shop.

Thanks for your input!
