Anyone use these rulers for blocks?
Much as I don't like to admit it, I am an easy hit for a new quilting gadget. I saw these online today and wonder if anyone has used them. Supposedly they make the cutting of triangles and HSTs foolproof, if that is possible. Your comments are welcome before I part with more cash.

Personally speaking, I'm not one for buying every single specialty ruler they have, I have a 4x13, 6x24 ruler, 9" and 12 1/2" square and my June Tailor Shape Cut ruler, these more than serve my purpose. As far as I'm concerned, the Shape Cut ruler is my go to ruler, as far as I'm concerned, it's the best thing since sliced bread.

They work only if you work ... seam allowance wise, I would think. Not sure of the need for this as add ing the amount for seam allowances.
However I like their ruler when I am making just one block per month and rush to finish it. I have gone from a 'finish it as soon as you get it' quilter to a last minute quilter.

I don't mind at all admitting I will buy any new quilting tool. How will I know if it is something I'll like to use if I don't try it. I'd like to hear from someone that does have this and their opinion. I don't pay attention to posts saying I don't need it if the poster hasn't used it.
