I bought one, but have yet to use it. It's full-size, looks like it would do
the job on all but the most difficult ones. For $50 it was worth a try, and
I wasn't disappointed when I took it outa the box My application is 13"
racing rubber, which should be easy.
It does require mounting to the shop floor with studs, or some other sturdy
base.
