Hi Pinhole

I'm trying to find a source of pith balls.

Anyone know where to get them?

Thanks

Hi, Paul:

Would you know where to find pith balls such as the ones used in low-budget electrostatic repulsion demos? (You know: the ones where you hang two pith balls from string and charge them so they repel when charged by a rod that's been rubbed by cat fur.) Especially where I could get them within the next two weeks (preferrably walking into a store and buying them).

Thanks.
