Okay here goes. I will be happy to answer any questions. I hope the pictures help. The first picture is the ruler laid out on the strip set; white (2in), yellow (2 in.) and green (1.5). Note the 45 degree line runs right along the top of the strip set. Second picture shows the 2 inch cut already made. The third shows how I cut the slice down to 3.5 by 2 inches centering the green evenly in the middle.
