Realizing I've never used and probably never WILL use a 'gasket', but what  
about Silpat...anyone think it's remotely useable? Not sure if it'd  be 
easy to cut. Mine doesn't have that border shown in the video.

or this newer generic version I just found online (much less  expensive AND 
able to be cut):

I once used red hot water bottle rubber. It was the correct  thickness. 
Unfortunately, the water bottles these days aren't smooth. They have  a pebble 
grain finish., and too thick anyway.No good. I'm still thinking. (Every  
time my family throws something out, I study it for possible harmonica  
uses.....and 'I' do the garbage.  lolol)
