I'll definitely be watching this thread. I bought one three weeks ago at a quilt show. I loved what the woman demonstrating could do with it, and I'm hoping I can do half as well with it. I played with it a while at the Handiquilter booth, and it wasn't too hard to use. There definitely is some practice needed to keep the foot evenly along the curved section, but the straight and angled sections were easy to use.

I have one but haven't used it extensively yet. I need to paint some rubber cement on the back of it so it doesn't slip around on the fabrics so much.

Got one when I first got my HQ. I have used it a fair amount. Easy learning curve.

I am a Handi Quilter educator and I tell my students if they can only buy one ruler this is the one to buy. The half circle can be used for clamshells and an arc for continuous curve. There is a right angle and also a great stitch in the ditch line. It is a great "go to" tool.
