Have you ever needed a square but can't find the ruler? I'm in need of a 11 inch square and 5 in square. Does anyone make their own and how?

In your case, why can't you use a 12" ruler and a 6" ruler and square you block up.?? I doubt they even sell the size you are looking for. But a storer that cuts glass to size could cut you an acrilic ruler to the size you need. It might be a bit pricey though. Marge

I do what mic-pa suggested. I use the next size up ruler, and just align the opposite corners on the diagonal and square it up. Sometimes I can get by with only trimming 2 sides, sometimes I have to trim all 4.

If you have a stain glass store, or local Home Depot or Lowes will cut a piece of plexi glass for you.

I have been to both and both were reasonable.

It might take a day or two with the stain glass place but usually the home improvement stores will do it while you wait. If you can find someone to do it for you!

Bev, I just had DH make me a full set of templates from acrylic, it is really easy to cut and if you use your cutting mat to mark out and square up the acrylic you get perfect templates in any size you need :D Heres a picture of the set he made me.

I do have those, just not sure how to use them.

Yes, and I have looked for the 5 inch one but we here don't have it :x

Lucky You. I asked hubby, but he said he didn't have the tools to do it. :cry:

We have a Home Depot in the next town over. I'll have to call around. Template plastic at Joanns is too thin

I'll see if I can locate a video that shows me how
Thanks everyone
