I prefer a cork-backed steel ruler myself. I don't need to see through a ruler, and clear rulers are usually so thick that they cast a significant shadow that is liable to obscure my view of what I'm cutting. also, you can accidentally cut notches into them with your blade when using it as a cutting guide, which is much more difficult with steel.
my simple twelve inch steel ruler is my third most important tool, after the x-acto knife and a ceramic detailing blade that is the perfect dullness for scoring fold lines. oh, and my mat of course.

I use different sized nail clippers to cut out various curves or small round pieces.

Well for the clippings I have a container for them and once I finish a model I just throw the clippings in the recycle, and regarding the glue drippings I use hot glue. When it drips they harden into little drops which I just pick off and throw away.
I keep my desk VERY clean -Matthew
