Try watching Craftsy's free Block of the Month video. One month is a paper pieced blocked. The video will help you. I believe it is October. http://www.craftsy.com

Not a must, but many will tell you including me that it is well worth the money. It makes cutting a lot easier because it has a raised lip which regular rulers don't have that buts perfectly up against the paper so you have no shifting problems like with a regular ruler

Not a must at all, IMHO. I did paper/foundation piecing for years before the add-a---rulers were conceived, producedand purchased. I, too, like my other rulers to cut the 1/4 inch though again, I also use scissors if it might be quicker. One of the first foundation pieced project was a 3" square with 16 or 17 pieces.

I too took a paper piecing class. The ruler was part of the requirements. The ridge sure makes it nice for cutting = don't have to think.
Since then, I've used it and/or any other ruler that seemed right for the moment.
Like most have said, you don't have to have it..... You might try paper piecing without it and maybe borrow one from a friend and see the difference.
