My DH stepped on my big cutting mat and bent it. I think he was trying to pick it up with a grabber and bent it with his foot to grab the corner. Not sure what to do now. There is a ripple at about 15 inches. I'm so heated!! I suppose I can flip it to the back and put the ripple to the top. But I do use the grid to line things up. :|

Could you lay it flat out in the sun to let it get back to shape??
|
Be careful, the sun will warp it.

have him buy you a new one, after he realizes they are not cheap- bet he wont do that again..

When mine got bent really bad from being stuffed in a closet, I laid it out on the patio in the sun for a couple of hours. When I went to bring it in it was as good as new.
Hope this works for you. |
We are not going to have too much sun anytime soon so I don't think that is too much of an option. I might put some heavy books on it and then blow some hot air on it. If that fails...yes I'm getting a new one.
50% off Joann coupon coming up. I might get lucky. |
Hobby Lobby has 40% off printable coupon online and they are not on sale this week so you can use the coupon.

I put mine inthe sun on my walkway and covered it with a piece of cotton fabric and put a couple of bricks on the wrinkled spot. Came back nice and flat flat and I use it all the time....
