Has anyone tried this tool for binding?

Thank you to all who gave me advice. I like the fact that it is small and the slits are used to get the exact measurement. I tend to slip at times using my ruler when marking the 1/4''. At a cost of $4 or maybe less at Joanns , I will give this gadget a try.

It's for marking the corners so you get a nice mitered corner. The different sizes are for the different widths you may use. For example, I never make a 1/4" binding on my quilts. Mine are usually 3/8" or 1/2". I just like them a little wider. However, I usually just use a ruler.

It's another gadget I bought in my early stages of quilting, never used it. I just mark my edges and my bindings seem to come out fine. Sometimes I think these gadgets are developed just to get our money.
