"the second cut ruler" by Marti Michell. What exactly is this for?
 
I found this in my sewing stuff. I don't remember how long ago I bought it but there is really nothing about it online that I can find. Does anyone have one? Do you remember if it's for something specific?

She has an active blog and you can ask her. I have no idea what that ruler is about. http://frommartimichell.blogspot.com/

Couldn't find any you tube videos. Do you have a link?

looked again and didn't see one on your ruler. lots of other things but not that. i did see a photo of one and it looks like a ruler that does many things. not my kind of ruler. i like them simple. hope you find the info you need.

Look again at MM's videos, except look for the log cabin one that shows how to use two rulers to cut more accurately. I don't think it is a special ruler, just another ruler that helps make the cut after you have decided the width of the strips you use. I use two rulers quite often but I use my regular rulers, not a specialty ruler. Hope her videos are helpful. Happy stitching. Kathy

Do you have a picture? Her website doesn't reference a "second cut" ruler. http://www.frommarti.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?

The minute I read this, out of my mouth popped this, "it is for when you screw-up the first cut". Sorry, no help but I just couldn't resist sharing this one.

Her blog doesn't offer a way to contact her but I found her page on facebook and asked there.
