    I use a flexible Clear tape, aka 3M Surgical Tape. Comes on a roll like regular 'scotch' tape and I got it at RiteAid drug store. It has a nice soft weave on it that holds the rulers very well. And it is see-thru.

    I have the sandpaper "dots" on my rulers (which themselves are sold as "no slip" rulers), but I still get some movement. So I'm going to give this product a try since it's gotten such great recommendations from many of you!

    Yes, they absolutely work. I love that my ruler no longer goes askew and I now have straight cuts.
