Questions & Answers

Can you tell me whether this measuring system uses cm or mm?

Besides measuring cm and mm, it is also capable of measuring inches. As well as measuring feet, it measures inches (up to 39 inches) on the reverse.

You can purchase 12 meters for $25 in one box. Would that be 58 or is it 25 for each meter stick?

I did say it's one box with twelve meter sticks for 25 sticks. There is no better deal than this.

There is a hole in the end for hanging up the product?

If you want to drill it yourself or hire a professional, you have to do it yourself. Since 1950, I haven't seen a wooden meter stick with a hole. While 12" rulers usually have one, wooden meter sticks don't usually have one. In addition to the metal ends, they also had rubber On the other side of this board are inches of what is probably hardwood. Despite the fact that Westcott still sells one with metal ends, you would have to purchase from them if you desire that feature. I really like the way it's made and shows clearly what's inside. I just thought I'd give you a heads-up One of the typical features of metal ones is the One of the blades is on a heavy 48" ruler I have. The use of metal is MUCH better if you need to make precise lines. It won't take long for the wood to become bumpy if you aren't If you only need 36 inches of a meter stick, you need to consider that metal yardsticks often have millimeters on the back. My memory is not great, but I recently noticed that many inexpensive 1 foot rulers at Walmart have brass edges. Unfortunately, I have not seen a yardstick with this edge, even if they are 3 for a dollar and have millimeter indicators. Here is a summary of what I hope will help.

Can you tell me how many sticks there are?

One of mine was there. Many of the items for classroom instruction bundled up with multiple meters or yard sticks.

Selected User Reviews For Westcott 10431 Wooden Meter Stick, 39 1/2"

There is a lot of information presented in a clear manner and the font is bold
5/5

Basically I bought it as a toy 18 months ago just so my kids would know what a measure is when they get older. There has been a lot of abuse, but it still holds up well. There are some spots where the paint has worn off, but the text is So, a lot of refrigerator magnets have been removed from the underside of the refrigerator, which is convenient. Whenever I kick them under the fridge in the first place, they always land on the kitchen floor again, which is why I kick them off the refrigerator to begin with. Since my kids learned how to retrieve these since I bought them, they've become very adept at doing so. If my daughter sees me kicking her letters under the fridge, she tears up, so I do it when she isn't looking. Despite my attempts to speak to my wife about this, she is unsupportive. It is well designed with a bold font and clear markings, the only thing missing may be a hole for hanging it on a wall.

A package that could not possibly be packaged! The package came in an exceptionally thick, very long tube, thick enough to require a saw to open
3/5

I nearly injured myself over the course of two days trying to open it. Could you please tell me how the ends of the tube looked like? Then again, that was a good show. THE METAL WAS FITTED SO TIGHTLY THAT NOTHING movable would move. The whole experience was horrible. It was the last meter stick I would ever purchase, I will never buy another.

I would describe this as a pretty basic but functional meter stick
4/5

I'm not sure what else to say. It's a functional, essential meter stick that has It feels fine, but I am worried that it will snap if I wince. Compared to my old meter sticks from high school and college, this one is not quite as thick or sturdy. In terms of being a straight edge or simple measuring tool, it works fine.

The meter stick is pretty good
4/5

Crisp and very easy to understand You need to read markings to do this. There is one thing I dislike about these scales, they do not start If you want that, you'll need to shave a bit of wood off.

Supplier who is extremely responsive
5/5

Although my stick was carefully packaged with plenty of padding and shipped in a generous box, somehow it ended up broken in transit. After I realized what had occurred, I had a hard time understanding Though I could not see it at first, the shipper had crushed the box from the end. I told the vendor about it, so they could modify their shipping (but I didn't request a replacement, as I was fine with just gluing it back Nonetheless, they provided me with a completely new one without asking any questions and free of charge without my even asking. There's no doubt this was Acme, thank you for your support. There is a reason why the Coyote has always used you!.

This is a good quality product
5/5

I bought it specifically to use it as a trammel to draw radius designs for model railroads. Good quality, not too flimsy, and the markings are clearly visible.

This is good
4/5

The meterstick seems to be of decent quality. I bought this for physics class, and it was the best choice I could make. I feel the wood to be solid and rigid when I hold it, it is completely smooth and straight as well. No problems with jagged or rough edges have been encountered. My favorite feature is how easy it is to read the lines and how reversible the meterstick is. As well as the measurements seem to be Although the meterstick does appear to be overpriced on Amazon, I believe that it is not. I have seen it for less than half of what I paid in other online stores since purchasing it.
