In addition to the typical markings on a yardstick the half-yard quarter-yard marking are especially useful and the entire reason why I purchased this yardstick.
The yardstick does everything you’d want from a yardstick which is maintaining its length. It has a nice wooden construction a comfortable heft and maintains its rigidity.
This product is cheaply made with several defects. Nothing like yardsticks of yore. Please look at it carefully if you are a serious user. I was in a hurry grabbed the top one in the stack and didn’t examine it. But it’s cheap in cost too so not worth returning.
I needed a yardstick & Staples was nearby. I had to go to a homecenter a few days later & found one for 98 cents . Big difference for the same item unless this one is termite proof.
A yardstick should show the inch measures 1 to 36 running left to right on one side and right to left on the back side of the yardstick. This yardstick does not making it more difficult to take quick measures.
Within Staples I found a wooden yardstick for about $6 but I refused to purchase it. I had gone online before but did not see this one I never give up so one night in my search online this one popped up and I put it in my cart but did not make the purchase until I knew I could arrange a ride to pick it up. I am a DIY and was building a product I needed instead of paying $175 for it. Thank you Staples for having online a price that made more sense for this item.
