If you want to save measurements on your ruler, use small pieces of colored electrical tape – found at your local hardware store.
Looking for cheap material for templates. Go to your nearest medical clinic’s x-ray department and ask for the blank sheets that they run through their machines. They usually throw these blanks away every day. If there is ink on these sheets, you can soak in a mixture of bleach and water.
If you are working with templates to cut scraps to check sizes - Instead of placing the template above the scrap, place the scrap above the template. If you see any parts of the template, the scrap is too small. This saves time sizing up each piece.
