Default Ruler Revolution - anyone tried these?

Any one tried the ruler revolution rulers? They seem pricey so I want to ask for info before I invest. I am interested in the snow ball ones for starters.

Here's the link on them - https://rulerrevolution.com/producs.html

Let me know if you have tried them.

Thanks,

Linda

Really no one has used these or heard of them? Interesting.

I've never seen hese rulers. I am trying not to buy any more notions. I have purchased so many that promised to make thise easier, better, faster, etc. Most are lying in the drawers. These look interesing but pricey.

I think this has been brought up before. Do a search and see if you come up with something. I must be tired b/c I don't understand what they do

I don't see the need to buy a ruler specific to making "snowball" blocks etc. Lots of easier and cheaper methods for making HST's too. Triangulations software makes rulers obsolete!

I kind of doubt that any software makes a straightedge tool obsolete. What's more, there are many of us who couldn't afford to buy triangulation software even if we wanted it. I don't see anything special about the rulers in question, but then some of my quilting buddies couldn't see anything special about the ruler I bought for the Dresden plates I love to make. froggyintexas

I have quite a few of her rulers and they save me time...which is something I don't have much of. I have the snowball rulers, but haven't used them yet. I think they are worth the money.

You don't know what this software does obviously, or you wouldn't comment. And the software is less than some of these rulers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0z6o7Bh7MYg

Here are 'triangulations' or paper piecing pages one can download and do the HST's. Even using paper piecing, I still use a straight edge to cut them out.
