    Tip for puzzle mat hand slippage

    When to replace step

    Does anyone have any advice or guidance on when / if a step needs to be replaced? I've had mine 12-15 years and it seems fine. But I wondered if they lose spring or grip over time that I don't see. Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Puzzle mats and discs

    I just put down puzzle mats to protect my carpet. But the discs with cloth covers don't slide as well as plain discs on carpet. Any suggestions? Pledge spray worked well on carpet but I'm afraid it will make the mats too slippery Thanks :-)
