I have my late DH's T-square, and also love it. I can put sandpaper on it so it doesn't move at all. Lots of things from wood shop works well with sewing. The clear front drawer sets for screws works for needles and pins and masses of tiny thingeys that I need but don't use every day. I made labels for the fronts and can now find most of what I want that is small enough to go in those small drawers.

Thanks for the idea of adding sandpaper to the T-square!
