Default 10 inch glow edge ruler

Has anyone ever used one of these. I saw a demo and talk about a timesaver for 9 inch squares. My problem is now I can't find who sells them. Any help would be appreciated. I think they are pretty new.
Thanks,
Evelyn

How would a ten inch ruler be a timesaver for 9 inch squares?

edit: I googled glow edge ruler and found a number of sites. My fave rulers are glow edge, but they are the Quilter's Slidelock rulers with wood handle on top and retractable grippers.

because it is adjustable goes upto 10 inches. I would much rather make 2 cuts per square than 4 when I have so many to cut for Christmas projects.

Missouri Star has them. I use the 10" square layer cake one a lot. It glows!

That is not the same ruler. I have that one. Check it out on PM Quilting and once you see the picture it will make sense. The orange part is adjustable with two wing nuts and it won't budge when you tighten them.

Just watched the demo. Wow. That was a 'gotta' have until I saw the price and decided I had better make do with what I have.

If you can find him at a trade show he bundles them together and offers good pricing! I have them and am struggling with how to use. Embarrassing. But there are videos and my local shop just got one and is going to offer a class...
