David writes - "I've found a great new use for the old carpet tile samples my Architecture firm gets. I taped together some matching samples to make a rug for my pad. I originally tried this with Interface carpet tiles and carpet tape. The Interface carpet tiles are good for this, because they have a nice, firm, rubber back to them, however, this makes the rug hard to overturn when you're done taping the tiles together." Link.
