5. Are there differences in materials and how do they affect the quality?

Yes, there are differences in the materials used to make a yardstick. A wooden folding rule is usually more durable than a plastic folding rule, but it can be more susceptible to moisture.

Metal yardsticks are also available, but they are usually more expensive and heavier than wooden or plastic folding rules.

6. Are digital yardsticks recommended and what advantages do they offer?

They offer many advantages over traditional folding rules, including the ability to read and save measurements at the push of a button, as well as the ability to switch between metric and imperial units. Digital yardsticks also feature an automatic shut-off function to extend battery life and can generally provide higher accuracy than traditional folding rules. Some models also have features such as Bluetooth connectivity or laser distance measurement. However, digital yardsticks are usually more expensive than traditional folding rules and may require regular maintenance and battery replacement.
