Thanks. Good to know. I was wondering if the Post-it like adhesive was sufficient and concerned about the residue if additional "glue" was necessary.

Time will tell I guess, but it sure seems good to go. But that's also why I didn't want it hanging over the bevel even a little bit. An exposed edge like that is likely to get caught on something and pull the dot off....

Inspired by someone who shall remain nameless, I made up this little alignment tool.

@Larry C might find it of interest. 8-)

Sure, you could eye-ball it, but we're not animals.... I also got the glossy red vinyl and much prefer it over the matte version. :)

@Tom You've done it again. Brilliant idea! You are going to have to put one in the mail for me.

I will, but let me work on the design a little to ensure I can mail it in a standard envelope. I have an idea to do that and make it foolproof to boot. :)

Thanks. I was actually wondering if the design allowed it to be mailed in a standard first class envelope. Hopefully, your idea will work out. If not, I would be happy to pay whatever it is.

EDIT: My Hollow Punch Set was just delivered. They appear to be smooth with no rough edges and sharp. The mat is a little smaller than I imagined but, certainly large enough to get the job done. Overall seems to be a good buy.

Ok, I came up with an alignment tool that works great and will fit in a regular envelope. Will start sending them out this week. :)
