Ingenious! So simple, but so effective. It’s much like a story stick, but it can be adjusted to meet all applications. This would help with shelving or drawer diminsions. I’m going to the stationary drawer to get a clip right now!

What a great idea! Seems that most of the great ideas are simple and cheap. I have a draw full of these clips. Thanks!

Thanks!

I use this trick all the time – even with carpentry projects such as fences and decks.

It’s the recreatable aspect of this solution tool that impresses me. Thanks for the tip!

Those clips also work great for chip bags.

I agree with Mot. The use of “story sticks” is nothing new. This is a more unique solution that adapts to other applications.

I used the same technique when I had to measure my house for mini-blinds. It gave me a very accurate measurement for the inside of my windows. I was able to run the sticks up and down the window jams to see if there were any variations. I got a very nice fit doing it that way.
