Harvey & all,
I keep a supply of Black Brass Plated Steel engraving stock, turn it over and use the back side when you want to use it with magnets to hold down your work and you don't ruin the face so you can still use it in production. They run from $5.60 down to $3.50 depending on quantity.
btw, the brass plated steel works real well for lasering and costs less too, it is .015 thick instead of the normal .020

BTW, the answer.....be it expensive.....is a vacumme table. It works like a charm.
The Brass steel idea is the best I've heard so far.
