[Elecraft] Anti Static Mats

[Don Wilhelm]

When one touches it, a charge is developed - then when it comes in 
contact with a fully conducting surface, damage can occur.  If instead 
you are working on a proper anti-static mat, the charge from your body 
and the part is dissipated slowly, no damage will be done and everything 
will be at the same potential.
