The serated edge is so you can line them up with an existing already placed row. So in this case, you would flip it and have the solid aluminum outside the drill area on edges of the painting, or just lay it flat on the canvas so that it lines up better and none of the ruler is completely flat and causes less issues when placing diamonds. I use my tweezers to lift it up off the canvas. To make sure the drills made it through to the canvas and not come up when removing the ruler, I go over the area with my white handled straightener.

Thank you so much for this Video. l have just bought one of these tools. Now l know how to use it properly

Thank-you for sharing I just ordered a couple of these rulers

How good of you that you do these vidios. We all learn alot.

I've had my diamond painting ruler for a few days and I was putting hte flat end on the diamonds like in the beginning of the video. I did find the more I did, I got crooked. So I do have to fix it, but I've put the serrated edge(??) butted up against the diamonds I've done. I think that's more accurate. I'm loving the ruler and the click it makes when you put a diamond on the canvas is very satisfying :) I've used multi-places too, but what I've had to do with the longer ones is to rock it over the ruler instead of going head on like you usually would.

I used this for the first time yesterday. Fell in love with it and ordered more for back. Its so thin Im afraid its going to break. I love the straight line it gives even though its a little extra work, so worth it. Great Video. thank you

Thanks! I can't wait to get mine!

What a fantastic little tool. I think it might be a little harder to make one for square drills but would be amazing if they could. Thanks for showing how to use it x

I ordered mine yesterday! Can’t wait to try it out thanks for another great video😁

Glad to see the round ruler. Looks easier than the square one. Thanks for the review!❤️

this does look like a cool tool I'm not a perfectionist I just lay mine down but for those who are this would come in handy

Tfs tutorial! Yep, I think I need one! Will be adding to my cart right now! I have been ordering and doing a lot more rounds so I know this will help me! Thx again

I received mine a few weeks ago, but haven't had a chance to test it out. Thanks for the tutorial!

Wow! The difference is striking!

I have one ordered. Excited to get it now. Hopefully it comes soon.

It’s also great to straighten previous placed drills. Just place the ruler then you can twist and move the ruler to straighten.

Cool tool :) I don't think I can use it because of my vision but many people will love it!

Thanks for the demo! I wonder if we can lay it on the paper, clear plastic cover or parchment paper of the canvas instead of the worked drills. So lay the side without the holes over a flatter surface. I did order it on Amazon should have it soon.

I have used a roller to press the drills down.

Thank you sharing this I just ordered one😃

Nest ruler against beads already done. That is what those guides are meant for. The thick side should be on the sticky part of the canvas. If you don’t have it flat on the canvas, it will leave the lines. If you use the ruler totally down on the canvas and do that for the whole section, it goes quickly, section by section. I can complete a 30x40 within 4 days

I need to order this awesome little tool, one for me and one for my honey. Thank you for another awesome video Mrs. Coffee, yes, I'm binge watching your channel now that I can't sleep lol

The square tool I got from eBay has a thick border so when you are done and you want to reposition it, it goes on top of the ones already done it cannot lay down flat.

I would like to try one on something I am just taking my casual time on lol... as it seems they all are at this point since Christmas is over. Thanks for sharing!!!!!!!!!! :P

I was wondering if you can place that over sections already laid down to straighten the drills. Seems like you could and the drills slide to proper placement.

I was wondering the very same thing. I have been looking for a tool to straighten my rows after picture is completed.

Do they have T-shirts for diamond painting or only canvases?

Once you had filled the whole mesh part do you think you could use a roller to make sure they were all down? Very helpful video, I think I am going to plan it to do the edges all away around . I like to be sure they are super straight, then it just all seems to work out ok.

How do you nagative around the plastic cover? I find that a struggle. Also, heard about this ruler today.

Cover minder to hold the plastic back

I think the tool will also help get straight around the edges

I got one because I have OCD to keep my lines straight but haven't had the chance to use it yet. I don't think I have any round paintings right now.

It is so worth it. I cried when I tried the first 3 and they weren’t straight. I absolutely love it. It relaxes me instead of worrying about the world that’s going on around me.

Hi there, just ordered a set of mesh tools and looking forward to trying them out. I'm a new DP'er and was curious about the painting in this video. It looks like it has mixed round and square drills, is this true? Where did you get it and what is it called? Thanks for your videos, I find them among the most helpful I've watched!

Welcome! Now mesh rulers do come in different sizes so check them when you get them that they will work with your kits. Not sure why they come in different sizes 🤔.. Either way, of memory serves me right I was working on Free like a Bird in this video. It's a round kit from Diamond Art Club.

If you make a mistake, how do you get the drill out without picking up the whole mesh ruler?

I loaded the entire ruler area while doing my doing my painting and then tried to lift it up off the canvas. It is very hard to get up off the canvas; while taking it off my ruler split from the main area (the open end). I thought this would be a great aid. But, now it is too dangerous to use. I cut my self in the process. Any one else having trouble using it???

no that would be hard to do and would scratch your drills seeing how your putting something square into a round hole. they do make this tool for squares

My diamonds stuck to the ruler when pulling up. Any suggestions

Push down until you hear the click if that doesn't work, you may need a bigger size ruler

I left a comment below about using this new tool to straighten out the already completed rows.

I am curious if you still use this tool still. I saw somewhere a round and square tool like this sold together and a third tool. Just wondering, this looks like more trouble than it's worth.

Ah, but the ruler keeps everything straight. I must be OCD about positioning. It doesn’t take me long to finish a painting and I have a slew I need to finish as Christmas presents. I find the finished products rewarding.

I have many ideas! 1.The block of wood that came with it...perhaps use it to press down on the completed section? 2. If the one edge has the shape of the diamonds, butt it up to the completed section and put the solid end on top of the folded back cover sheet, or a piece of parchment paper NOT FROM DOLLAR TREE, so you can lift it up when you are done. 3. Write the company~ Hello friend. You are happy we order from you. We do not leave negative feedback when you happily provide helpful information on use of products.
