I was wondering how big or small the coins are usually. I know that I could make them any size I want but looking for an average. I'm not good with a rotary cutter so was going to make a template or go to JoAnn's and see if there aren't some already made templates.

lol! good for you! just figure out the width, and i used a small piece of masking or blue painters tape where each cut should be..at the bottom. so i got all the cuts the same width!

Thank you for the video clip. I've had one for a while now and I didn't realize there were so many other ways to use it.

ME TOO, I didn't know I could cut more than strips with it. I love that ruler.
