[QUOTE="gamerprinter, post: 5341438, member: 50895"] Its a post-it note, albeight a big one, when you're done using it for a session or two throw it away. Rip up a new sheet and do it again next session. Of course its going to get dirty, but its a temporary use only - why worry about it? In my mind the number of tiles you need to make a decent table sized map is larger than 24" x 24", so unless you have a really big map, the map tiles will extend past the edges of the adhesive surface. If you nest the tiles tightly enough, very little of the adhesive surface will be exposed. The compiled map of tiles shouldn't be needed for more than a session or two, I don't see it as big problem. OK, here's an easier solution. In my graphics shop, I use a rubber mesh sheet under my sign board when apply vinyl graphics on its surface. Most sign shops tape the board down, so it doesn't move while applying graphics. Using the rubber mesh sheet the board doesn't move at all - it sticks to the table top and holds the board in place for the same result and no adhesive involved. Though the rubber sheet is about a 1/4" thick so perhaps not as stable as laying flat on the table, but should still accomodate minis without them falling down. And if they do fall, the rubber sheet is soft, which should minimize mini breakage. Note: all my suggestions are ideas I have not actually tried, though the thought has crossed my mind.
