I actually went with the same sort of covers for my 935 table as well after seeing it on Mike's and made way-covers for my lathe with what I had left over. I just wanted to inject that Tractor Supply has the stuff in a few thickness as well if that's easier which is where I got mine.
I'll also add the mistake I made was finalizing the neoprene before I had finalized the vise position. I had the lathe excessively right limiting me on cutting from the right. When I ooched it left, I was out of neoprene so the rectangle I cut off the piece on the left came around and filled in on the right side. I also have a could of squares of it protecting the Kurt. Probably overkill but it was easy so it happened.

Good point. I keep my vises centered on the table and there is only a slight difference in the width of the bases between my Glacern 5" and Kurt 6" so whichever vise I happen to have on the mill the neoprene covers will work. With the Kurt they merely protrude off the table about .75" on each side is all so no major differences.
I didn't even think about Tractor Supply, I have one right down the road from me. Thanks for the info for future needs.
