The second batch seems to be much better, but I can tell that my ruler placement isn't consistent from batch to batch, resulting in minor size variations. Sometimes it seems that my strips are just a hair too big. I'm hoping for better efficiency and accuracy tomorrow. I will have to pick up the pace if I want to finish by Friday!
using this ruler isn't as easy as it looks, I think many of us are discovering that. I had to toss/reject about 10% of mine. I did use your suggestion of stacking strips and that worked for me. Hang in there!
