Abstract
Methods and apparatus relate to a debris catcher extending substantially in a plane from an integrated skirt toward a front lip that extends upward out of the plane less than a lateral lip extends upwards out of the plane. In an exemplary embodiment, a collar may be attachable to a debris catcher to provide a soft contact. In various embodiments, at least one perimeter rib may be embedded in the debris catcher to provide a rigid and stable flat portion. In some implementations, at least one partition rib may be arranged on the debris catcher to provide separated areas. In various embodiments, the debris catcher may not only keep debris retained on the debris catcher but also may enable the debris catcher to be pulled under a table.
