As one who does a lot of work on band saws and table saws, let me caution all of you not to try to slice a hockey puck in half yourself. Cutting a round object on a band saw or a table saw is VERY DANGEROUS and can result in a catastrophic accident faster than you might ever imagine! On a round object the point of entry for the blade is either ahead of or behind where the round object touches the table which can cause the blade on either kind of saw to grab and throw the object in the blink of an eye, sometimes carrying your hand(s) with it. The only sorta safe way to slice these is to build a jig that holds the round object securely so it cannot spin and which prevents your hands from getting anywhere near the blade. When Jim first started selling these I offered to build such a safe jig for him but he said someone had already done so and he and his workers were properly protected. Bottom line, if you want to use the hockey puck style replacement pads instead of the re
ctangular pads, please buy them - don't try to DIY.

For what Bounds charges for the pucks pre sliced ( perfectly even ) He must buy them by the pallet. So I could have saved $20 but would have to cut them myself. I don't think you realize how much other sh$t I have been tryin to finish on this thing.
I spent over $100 on spray adhesive for the headliner and wall skins. That's just for glue.
