The square is marked in eighths. I have used it to trim off 1/8 " slivers from small blocks. I don't know any other use for it.

I use it for cutting very small units/pieces accurately.

I like the 1/8 inch grid.

Thanks, MandyRose, for asking this question. I don't have that ruler but I have a different brand and I didn't know that irritating area had 1/8" markings. Lol!
