So I finally went and dug some sandpaper out of dh's tools...

I have a terrible time keeping my ruler from slipping. I've read the tip on sandpaper but was just too lazy (or scared) to tackle his stuff to find sandpaper! Today though after ruining 3 blocks from slippage I braved it. Its probably heavier sandpaper than I need but oh wow the difference! I glued a few small pieces to the back of my ruler and it stays in place! Now to go out (once the rain stops) and buy me some sandpaper...preferably some sticky kind so I don't have to wait on glue to dry!

It will hold the ruler alright. I can't slide the ruler which I like to do, I have to pick it up and move it. I forget and try to slide with the sandpaper on the ruler, what a mess I have then. LOL. I bought a Gypsy gripper and it keeps my ruler from slipping and I can still slide it.

I used plain old elmers glue and its still holding. Even after several days I'm still thinking this the best thing since sliced bread! I didn't realize how much the ruler moved on me till I tried this.
