Hey! I have one of those rulers in my drawer! I have only used it to make fringe on fleece! Guess I had better get it out and use it the way it was meant to be used :!: :oops: :lol:

I have one that I use part of the time. They do work good though. Sometimes I'm just too lazy to get it out. Linda

I think I may have been missing something. I just watched a demonstrsation on the conputer on how to use one to cut 2 inch squares, diamonds, and octagons. I think I'll give it another try. So glad I read about this since I was thinking of selling mine.

Love it :thumbup: Can cut strips that actually go together straight. Go for it!

I just used the circle one to make five inch circles for placemats using the Drunkard's Path pattern. It was
fabulous. Very fast and accurate circles.

yes I love them when cutting lots of strips but there are no quarter inch increments. Also I mark the lines to cut with painters tape so I don't get confused.

I just discoverd JoAnn's online store has them on sale today for $23.99!! Shipping is almost $7, so that make sit the same as the Amazon.com price of $30.21 with free shipping! I think I really need to get one of these.

I have the Fiskars Cutting Tool. I got mine on sale and only paid $30.00. I so love it. I get perfect strips everytime and I can cut up to I think 6 layers at a time. I only do 4 at a time. You can do up to 12 inches wide and long.

I use mine for everything. I have the 12 x 18 and love it. It does break if you let it fall on the floor - drats!! I fixed it with clear packing tape and we were back in business. Worth every penny.
