The Ultimate in Martial Arts

I wanted to know if any of you guys have a training area at home (in your garage or a buddy's garage perhaps) and where you guys got your mats. I'm looking to convert my garage into a training room but I don't want to break the bank. Maybe you guys even have some homemade mat solutions? Thanks alot.

In my basement, over the carpet, i have interlocking floor mats that are awesome for training and grappling. Theyre inexpensive and you can cover a wide area with them. You can order them on the internet or just go to store like linens and things can get them there.

Ofcoarse, mine arent these colors.
Also, my mat squares are alot bigger than the ones up top.

I got interlocking mats pretty cheap from a camping store. They're pretty thin, and they're down over concrete, so I wouldn't be doing any throws, but they're OK for practicing techniques at home.
