I have been using mine with a chipped corner. I have the 50% of coupon too - thanks for the idea of using it on a ruler.

I got one at a quilt shop closing and one corner was gone. I paid $2 for an 18 x 18 omnigrid. For that price, with or without corner. When I get to need that side I just flip it around. Never had a problem.

Doesn't that just want to make you spit :-( Been there, done that - I sanded it to round it off. I just realized that I have used my sander on more than one quilting tool ...

That is so sad. We hate to lose our tools.

If you have the pieces, put the pieces back in place wrong side up and then use a piece of clear strong packing tape to put over the pieces. I did that for one of my rulers until I could get another and I'm still using it. It works great for a crack in a ruler too. It doesn't interfere with moving the ruler on the fabric.
