When I was making the sheets in Australia I had some really big cafeteria dining tables to spread them out on. I did bring my rotary cutter and pad and you really only need to have the cutting pad under the area where you are going to cut, you don't have to have it under the entire sheet.

Also, once you get the sheet trimmed down to the right size, you can fold it into quarters, which makes it lots smaller and then cut all four corners at once.
