    Has anyone out there used these rulers. The video shows that you can attach in various ways and eliminate a lot of math when quilting.....not sure you would ever be able to do that, but like the idea of having longer rulers and seems like it would work better for squaring up fabrics/blocks.

    I enjoy quilts with bigger blocks for charity but I like to keep the size under 15" because I have that size. If I have to do anything larger, I just start stacking up my acrylic rulers and usually I can get the size I need. So many new inventions are being produced and we just have to buy what we need and can afford.

    I like the idea and purchased one. However, it is a rather flimsy plastic and I got rid of mine.

    I purchased two with the attachments and didn't like them. I gave them away to a gal here on the board. Weren't worth what I paid for them.

    I bought the combo set that is the gripper strips and the add-on attachment for cutting repetitive strips. I use the Olfa ruler that has a lip and the add-on doesn't fit. The gripper strips raise the ruler up enough that using a 45m rotary cutter is impossible. For me it was a waste of money.
