ruler grippers
Ruler grippers look very handy...do you use one? If so, which ones do you like? Is there more than one brand?
There are three sizes on this site and they all look like they could be very useful.

Re: ruler grippers
I use the sand paper dots... I tried the invisigrip and for me it didn't work...I also buy some rulers that already have the anti skid spots on them... they are called Creative Grids.

Re: ruler grippers
Are you asking about the ones that vacuum seal on the top of your ruler?
I have the small one and it works great - I use it on my smaller square rulers and it is handy in cutting but in not losing your ruler on the table!

Re: ruler grippers
Yes, it is the ones that vacuum seal. Sometimes when I am using the rotary cutter I let the ruler slip and wondered if the gripper would help.
Thank you
Thank you

Re: ruler grippers
OK - I have found that still sometimes that my ruler will slip off the line with the gripper as well - but I do still use it and like it.
I have not bought the large one - just the small one and that works for me
I don't cut standing up - I have learned to do it sitting down - so that is partly why I like the little one best.
Good luck

Re: ruler grippers
I have the large gripper and really like it for cutting long lines and large pieces.

Re: ruler grippers
I have the large one only. I use the longer rulers the most and find it very helpful!

Re: ruler grippers
I also found another use for the large suction grippers. I put them on the wall and they help me get out of the bathtub. lol

Re: ruler grippers
I just love all of the notions and gadgets. They make everything so much fun! Don't buy nearly all I would like to but I have way more than I need!
