I purchased a ruler organizer from a local quilt show a couple of years ago. I believe it was from "ROM Woodworking" (Not associated with). i believe they were from California. They had several sizes and also beautiful cabinets. I really like the one I have because it displays them and yet easy access for use and etc. I tried to load a picture but it is too big so if intersted I could send picture email or just do an internet search for ROM Woodworking. It has been a couple of years so maybe they have added other items also.

I cropped it and was able to post... This is the one I have from ROM woodworking. Also on the feet you can also put small rulers, I have one there but it does not show up real well. Sorry about the poor picture quality.

I hang my rulers on peg boards that are attached to the sides of my cutting table.....one side for squares and the other side for longs. My specialty rulers hang on peg board behind my ironing board as I don't use them as much but can still see where they are.

I put my small ones in a 12x12" plastic box you get at the fabric store. It keeps them all together, but I think that storing them in a plastic shoe box sounds like a much better idea to me. It would be easier to sort through the sizes. I, too, am a gadget gal and have more rulers than I really need.

Me too. Works for me.

I hang most of them in my closet on a hanger that is made to hang men's ties. You are probably familiar with them.

I use an office file holder...I paid a dollar each at the Habitat Restore. They work great...

Thanks for reminding me that I needed a slotted board to organize my rulers. I just ordered one from etsy. I may need another once I gather everything all together, but one should get me a little organized for now.

I store my large ones on Pegboard. I put my most used small ones in a wall hung ruler holder. Finally the unusual rulers and templates are in the project boxes from JAF,
