    I answer in the post. I have seen where folks ask the same question, in fact I have been one of them. I sometimes do not read all the responses.

    I use this to line up my needle, and then put my painters tape down.
    Works great every time.

    YIKES ! I didn't know that. That is so easy. I used to use a ruler, put the needle down, place the ruler against the needle and then place the sticky note pad stack at the quarter inch mark.

    On the very bottom of the index card is a small line that I usually cut off with a blade and a ruler. then put my needle on the line and my tape next to that.
    So simple and easy.

    Moonpi - I used to manage an instructional design team for a major corporation. My team was responsible for developing training materials to be used for the national segment of our organization. I have to say that if some of my instructional designers had written as clearly and simply as you have done in your tutorial, my job would have been a whole lot easier! Very well done!
