Hi People!!
Hope you had a good Easter. I had a typical weekend at the beach visiting my parents. Cloudy and windy and cold until the sun came out on Monday morning when we were supposed to leave!!

We have some 60cm wooden rulers which have a small hole half way along which slip over clamps on the retort stand and can be used to balance things. I've had a quick look through some catalogues and haven't seen any. I would like to order some more and am hoping someone here can point me in the right direction??

Thanks

I remember those from when I worked in Canberra. I think we got ours from the old NSW Govt Stores, whatever its current incarnation is. But mine were way old, even in 2001. Good Luck!

Cheers, K

I would think Serrata could have them.Give them a ring on 02 9651 3033

We purchased wooden ones from Q-stores, and our TAS dept put the hole in the middle for us.

Has worked very well

I purchased some from Serrata just at the beginning of the year. They are listed as a set - Lever and Fulcrum - but you can buy just the ruler part. The rulers come with just a hole or with a brass ring.

Like Sue we brought the 1m rulers and put the holes in ourselves. Cheaper nad fairly easy and fast to do.
