Bought one of those gripper things and my fabric just slide around and I gave up on it. I like my rotary cutter and rulers with the invisigrip on them. Works wonderful, never slips and I'm sorry I wasted my money on the gripper.

I use the sandpaper dots as well. Really make a difference.

What about the gripper thing that goes on the top of the ruler to help hold it steady when you are cutting? My ruler sometimes slips and you know the rest of that story!

I read that they are great to put in your bathtub or shower to use a a handicap bar, you know to kind of be a extra hand to get out of a slippery shower or just to help keep your balance. Just another use but I would advise to try it first and make sure it stay stuck in place, before depending on it to support lots of weight.
