Do you have a yardstick? Use them still?

In corner of the breakroom probably about 7 or 8 leaning in corner. Might take one home.

I have a metal one. I had to use it as a straightedge and cutting edge for mat making when I was in art school. I still use it as a straight edge. But I also have measuring tape.

I remember them, but I'm struggling to remember what we used them for. We always had one in the house growing up.

I have one from Home depot and i do use it on occasion, usually to get stuff that went under the refrigerator 😂
@MissingLink that's actually what I just used one here at work for 😆

We have an old 4 foot stick from somebody's sewing material. Also a Home Depot yard stick.
@exexec this one has old company I worked for name on it. Which no longer exists.

If i dont grab it now. May never have chance again. Maybe i should ask first. Decisions

@Bexsy The 4-footer is from an old printing company in my home town, back when phone numbers were just 7 digits. The back has all kinds of conversion factors, decimal equivalents, measures, etc. Did you know a cord of wood was 128 cubic feet or that one gallon contains 231 cubic inches? This thing is better than a calculator. No batteries.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a yard stick. Heard of them though

My dad was a caretaker at a school and we had an armful of them. No idea why. Lol

don't think I've used one since making pine roping 20-25+ years ago 🤔
Not anymore .. but I do have about 4 tape measures
Musicman · 61-69, M
No I don't and I haven't even used one in years. I do have a couple of 25' tape measures though. I used one just a couple of days ago.
Only for one I need to measure my 🍆

You could see how many yardsticks tall you are. 🤔
The question from the The Strawberry Alarm Clock,…”are yardsticks for Lunatics? One point of view…”
Tall enough for you to use as crunches...or stilts
