I have been using tiles from http://www.softtiles.com. They make two thicknesses so you be the judge of what you need.  Buy a few spares, but generally they are very durable and easy to clean.

> Hi Everyone,
> Our museum is currently working on building an Angular Momentum machine for one of our new exhibits.   I was hoping to get some recommendations on a flooring material for the base.   We were thinking of a locking foam floor tiles.  Do you have a specific brand to use?  What is the thickness?   What wear and tear issues have you come across?
