Whenever I see any on clearance I buy them. I have several still in their original packages.

Yes, I do. Every show I go to I manage to buy one special ruler, and it's usually a year or more before I use it...sometimes not at all. Hummm....I could donate them for the raffle table at guild. :idea: :thumbup:

I have purchased several new rulers lately that I haven't used yet. But, I have plans for each one of them. Little by little!!!!

my fons & porter easy diagonal sets ruler for triangles could use a good dusting as it hasn't been touched since I bought it a couple of years ago. triangles scare me.

I buy a lot of specialty rulers. Some are not made anymore so I'm glad I have them even if it's years before I get the bug to make the pattern that I can use them for. And many have almost doubled in price from what I paid. I never pass up a specialty ruler.

I have that set as well, but I had a gift certificate that needed using and I couldn't think of anything else.

Have maybe 4 never used & also the same number that I won't use.They're hard to read & just not rulers I choose.That reminds me, I need a GOOD new 6 1/2" ruler.

I have a few I haven't used. but I have them when I need to use them I won't have to go out and buy it. I won't buy them unless it is on sale and I think I will use it sometime in the future.
