Cutting Mat A3

The unsung hero of every hobby desk. This genuine Tamiya A3 cutting mat gives you a big, protected surface for trimming sprues, slicing decals and squaring up masking tape, with printed metric rulers so you can measure and cut in the same motion. Its three-layer construction hard outer faces over a softer core means blade marks all but disappear, so it keeps looking tidy job after job.

Why it’s good

• Large A3 surface protects the desk and gives you room to work
• Three-layer build keeps cuts barely visible, extending the mat’s life
• Printed grid and rulers help with measuring and squaring up cuts

Best for

• Trimming sprues, cutting card and slicing decals or masking tape
• Protecting blades as well as the desk underneath
• Everyday use at the bench, sprue-cutting session after sprue-cutting session

Roll it out, and suddenly every cut feels a bit more precise and your desk stays in one piece.

A workbench essential you buy once and use for years. Pair it with a sharp hobby knife and sprue cutters from the tools range.
