3Dmate Base - Transparent 3D Pen Mat 18 x 12 Inches with Fuse and Join Area - Flexible Two-Sided Heat-Resistant Silicone - 3D Pen Accessories Compatible with Stencils - STEM Activity for Kids, Adults

Super cool add on to go with a 3D pen. I use mine every time I get the pen out. East to do very structural things to base your free-hand work off of. Thick protective surface to work on without damaging table. Unroll and let relax for a bit on the first usage but not an issue after. My wife has one and cut it into 6 pieces but I like mine whole.

Purchased this for my wife, so far it has worked perfect, we had a minor issue but the seller was able to correct it in a very timely manner.

This mat is a great product. It helps me draw really neat lines, and dramatically reduces the frustration of using a 3D pen. The shape options provided are very useful. The flexible quality of the mat is also great: you can easily transport it anywhere, and the bendiness makes popping out the finished pieces very simple. It can be useful for a person of any age interested in 3D pens. The only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the hefty price. $30 or even $40 would be easier to swallow. Thankfully this is a very sturdy mat, and will likely last for many years of regular use.

Great surface for 3d pen drawing. Makes it easy when making squares or circles.

I purchased this mat for my 10 yr old daughter to use with her new 3d pen for Christmas. We have never used a 3d pen before and we were a little skeptical about how difficult it would be to make anything with it. I was also looking for a protective surface to use the pen on so that we would not damage our tables. Well, this mat is the answer to all of our concerns. First of all, the mat appears to be made of a very durable material that does not melt or change color with direct contact with our 3d pen. Second, the mat is full of different types of lines and shapes to assist you with creating any type of formation you need to construct your masterpiece. We are so pleased we found this mat. Originally, we were searching for something that we could use to protect our furniture, but what we found was so much better. You simply use your pen to follow the grooves in the mat and then you can pull your newly formed shapes right out of the mat. It's that simple. My 10 yr old got the hang of it in about 10 minutes. I only supervise her so that she does not use the pen incorrectly, she does not need any help with creating cool objects due to the ease of use with the 3Dmate design mat. I highly recommend anyone who is looking for a tool to make 3d pen drawing simpler to use this awesome innovation.

This mat has multiple spot that have different shapes to help make 3D art. My teen and younger child both were able to use it perfectly. Great price as well.Very sturdy and easy to clean.

Nice size silicon mat, I like the way it’s laid out, give me plenty of ideas to create some useful stuff, and just playing with it will be fun, only thing I’d change about it would be make the grooves and lines twice as wide as they are, maybe twice as deep as well , I think the molten plastic would be a little easier to control if the mat was designed with deeper and wider grooves. Watching YouTube videos of people creating things with their 3D pens they make it look easy. I guess after working with a 3D pen a while it would be easier. I like the container it’s shipped in , will make a useful storage tube for the mat when it’s not being used.I found that the plastic flows pretty good on to the mat stays put and releases easily when making parts of projects.I’m still trying to master controlling the 3D pen I have it’s challenging,

Got this with the 3d printing mat for my 9 year old. Firstly, like all these 3d pens, you really need a lot of practice before you get good results. Having said that, this device does work. It heats up very quickly and loading the filament proved easy enough. You can leave the filament in between uses, just make sure you don't use the back button before warming up the device.The packaging was nice and contained some starter PLA.Issues:1. The speed button is odd. The slowest speed pushes no filament out at all, and the fastest is too slow2. There is no stand, that small bit of plastic missing means that there is no where to rest your pen3. The tip is plastic and has a habit of catching plastic as it leaves. This is not inherent to this pen, but better pens have metal tips where it's a lot easier to remove the stuck plastic.
