I use heavy paper (140lb or heavier) & tape it down to a board. My only request for Christmas this year was a new wooden board large enough to fit an 18" X 24" sheet.
I used my previous board to patch a hole in the back porch floor.(lol)
This shows my new board and below is a small piece taped down.
