Angle grinder cutting on top of a board

[dg-1984]

I was watching videos on cutting tiles with angle grinder and came a cross one where the tile was cut on what looked like a large board.
Anyone know what material it would be looking at getting something to cut on top of.

Piece of plasterboard on a pop up table is as good as anything

Thanks, it looked like wood was a little thicker and had been used alot so loads of cuts in it, looked like cork board or something.

Any sacrificial surface will be fine, as Andy said.
Carpet
PB
Polystyrene
Celotex
Plywood
Anything that has enough depth to prevent you cutting your permanent table.

Why wouldn't, I left out that you should try and cut over the same place all the time as the laminate can prematurely wear your blade , so best to have just one groove

saw a guy use his thigh once .
hot angle grinder blades cauterise as they cut so not much blood lose

I've used the thigh method in the past. That ATS blade just went straight into my leg. It didn't hurt but I won't be doing it again.
I find that the customers lawn works best or if there is a grass verge outside their house. No vibration transferred to tile and less chance of breakage.
