I like using the Thangles. I have drawn my own grids, but they aren't as accurate as the ones you can purchase. I haven't tried any of the other papers. I hate having to square up, and would rather make them the right size the first time.

Yep, this is how I do it, works for me, and I like being able to square them up.

Jcrow, are you wanting to make triangles or half square triangles? Your OP says triangles.

Jenny Doan of Missouri Quilt Company has a lot of great tutorials on making blocks with HST's and she shows various methods on how to cut them.

I will stick to my triangulations. Much cheaper than thangles, you only buy the CD once and you are good to go for any size HST. It sure made my quilting a whole lot easier.I mean quilt sewing, not the quilting.

I use this method, too, although I hate tearing the paper off. (need to get some pulp paper). This paper method produces the most accurate HSTs, I've found.

Here's a great way or multiple HST's (I also make a little larger and trim down)

This is different. she sews strips then cuts them into HST
