These come in handy when writing long Bates numbers as well as product serial numbers.   This is an invention of my own.  I've shared it at seminars with Eclipse instructors, so you might have picked this up from one of them before.    These are major stroke savers.  It allows you to write a number like this 00002000 in just two strokes, leaving less room for error. 

 

While the fingering requires a little extra dexterity, it gives you the time to focus on more precise stroking.

 

You must hit the number bar with all strokes below:

Multiple zeros.  

2 zeros:     0u = 00

3 zeros:     ous= 000

4 zeros:    ousz=0000

 

10u=    100

10us=  1000

10usz= 10000

(ditto 2, 3, 4, 5)
