I almost exclusively use the 8.5 x 24 now that I have it - rarely bother getting out anything else

I, too, love CG rulers and have several. My husband likes to buy them for me because they are made in the USA. The one I do not have is a 12.5" square, of all things. I use my 15.5" a lot for that. My favorites are the 2.5"x6.5" I got on a shop hop in Texas, the 6.5"x24.5" and the 15.5" square. I did buy a 2.5"x12.5" that I find easier to keep track of than the 6.5". So, it will probably become a favorite.
I don't like JT or OG at all and it isn't just the slippage. That nasty yellow color is very difficult for me to see clearly. I gave all of those to my sister. She was happy and I was glad to see them gone!

I use the small CG rulers 2 1/2, 3 1/2, and 4 1/2 for my mini making. I replaced my worn out 6 x 12 and 6 x 24 OmniGrids with the yellow sight aids with the frosted Olfa rulers. Love these when making larger wof cuts! As I get older the yellow hindered instead of helped me.
