Karen Kay Buckley adjustible Rulers??
 
Has anyone used the Karen Kay Buckley adjustable rulers? I see MassDrop has them and was wondering if they work.. Are there little blips when you cut with the longer ones?

I have the big square. I use it more then I thought I would. I don't have a problem with the connections. The storage box is pretty. Connecting Threads has this ruler and I've seen it on sale there a few times. There is a video how to connect and disconnect and how to use them.

I will check that out. I have and love her scissors.

Thanks so much for introducing me to her very impressive perfect square notion; I noticed it scored quite well on customer satisfaction on the Amazon web site. Her personal site http://www.karenkaybuckley.com mentions that the item has been updated in Nov. of 2015, so this probably explains the price differences on various other sites, including Ebay. Her talent is evident in her samples/patterns shown. Way above my capabilities, but I plan to use the perfect square notion for something far simpler.

Her tools seem impressive. It would be nice to be able to break down your long rulers for easy traveling. I do have one question though, I watched her video on the long rulers and I wondered how durable the rulers would be when ripping them apart over and over. The square ruler might be better and hold up longer because the seams are small, but what about the larger pieces. Just wondering, as it is an expensive product, no matter what product you buy from her.

I have the set and I LOVE the rulers. So does my daughter. No blips where they snap together. I do have a rubber mallet that I use to 'snap' the pieces together tho. I'm sure with use they will get easier to put together. Well worth the price. And yes, the box is beautiful. The largest square is 16" and it's really nice to be able to square up a block with the exact size ruler even if it's an odd size block.

Those look interesting and definitely great to travel w/. My favorite size ruler is my 8.5x24 and my 6 inch square or my 6x12.

Purple Moose Designs is having her teach at a retreat next fall in New Hampshire. I'm hoping to go. I love her scissors as well.

I had never heard of these rulers before now. I watched the video & they look great. If I were to buy one I would get the 6" as I use that size all the time. This might be something I buy special for myself with a gift card. :)
