Tips & Tricks

If you are cutting a width that is not on your ruler, position narrow masking tape at the correct place on the under side of the ruler and use the edge of the tape as your guide. You may want to use this method for cutting many strips the same width even when the ruler has the measurement you need because lining up the ruler is easier and faster and
there is little chance of cutting the wrong width.
