I was wondering if any of you had any idea just where I could go to
acquire a nice (preferably wooden) meterstick.
Try Sargent-Welch. Here is the URL of their page that has a $4.55 one-
metre wooden metre stick (and I believe there are also half-metre
sticks and double-metre sticks) on it:
http://www.sargentwelch.com/category.asp?start=6&Measurement=&c=701222
Or just start at:
http://www.sargentwelch.com/
and navigate to the appropriate pages. Just click on "Physics" and
then on "Basic Equipment" and then on "Measurement" (and note their
is more than one page so click on "pg 2" also).
Of course they carry lots of other basic measuring equipment as well.
You can navigate to any other subject and type of equipment you like.
