Default RULERS -reviews?

A heading or discussion thread for quilting products? I'm interested in reviews of rulers. Not the Accuquilt or the Quiltcut. I have a Sizzix Big whatever that will use Accuquilt, and the Quiltcut board just gets in the way as I use the cutting table for quite a few other things. Clothes patterns, matting photos, or tabletop photograpy for starters .Plus the cats like to sleep there.

I like the Olipfa rulers the best so far, but saw a demo of Martelli for strips. I normally rip strips as it takes less time but they distort. At least they are on grain.

I've seen other add-ons to rulers to help - anyone tried or used?
http://www.guidelines4quilting.com/G...ml#Connectable - There's another similar that can be added to any ruler.

I have some rulers normally sold in craft stores that have green lines over the grid on them. I'm thinking of tossing them since I can't see the edge of the fabric

Thanks

It's funny - I can cut out almost anything paper using an exacto and a cork-backed ruler. But fabric gives me fits!
