Flat Wood Toothpicks, 2500/Pack [Set of 3]

Used for physics class bridge building project. Received a literal f ton of toothpicks (3 big boxes like 2500 pieces per box) for like 15 bucks. About 1/3 of the pieces are unusable too thin, warped, mis cut. But that's ok.

Inferior product

These are not all the same. Some are very thin and break easily. Others are shorter than normal. Depending on use, they might be suitable. You could poke a cake with one to see if it’s done. I wanted to use them to build structures with my kids with Elmers glue. They really aren’t strong or uniform enough for that.

I was skeptical about purchasing this item, but was very pleasently surprised when I recieved it. The flat style was perfect for my needs.

I use toothpicks as a kind of oral pacifier, to reduce the urge to smoke cigarettes. I can't even find flat toothpicks at my local stores, so I was really pleased to find them at Amazon. They are light weight, easy to carry in quantity, and now I have enough of a supply so I can use them freely. For me, this was a very good buy.

Description says “set of 3” but I only received one.

I am a little disappointed that the sticks are tapered since their advertised for crafts, but they're still exactly what I expected. They are identical to other flat toothpicks I've purchased, but very inexpensive.

I use these for a physics bridge building project. I like the fact that they are thin and fairly weak on their own so the students have to put some thought into their design. The biggest problem I have is that about 1/4 of the box is toothpicks that are crooked, bent, or otherwise not usable when you need a somewhat uniform structure for building. But overall they work quite well (the ones we can use at least).
