When I was in school, the teacher had affixed a short piece of wire of each size to a piece of wood and put it on display on his desk.
I am interested in knowing if anyone makes or sells such a product?
Thanks.

Sounds like an excellent DIY project. Get to be friends with your supply house. Explain your idea as a teaching aid, & possibly they might give you a short sample of each type. I believe my local supplier would be on board if I wanted to do this.

I don't know anyone who sells them, most instructors like me make them for our classes. It is especially useful to lower level classes. I teach classes at a community college that prepare the students to take the NC state inspectors test. We have 3 levels here of certification for an inspector. Visual and hands on items are a great teaching aid.

Most supply houses will give you what you need, or go to Lowes that small amount would not cost very much.
