The measuring device is a "ruler". The other measuring device is a "tape measure". A "tape measurer" would be a person who measures tape.

opposite to what promptly thinks, ivory isn't unlawful to possess. some international places used to have an ivory import ban to discourage the slaughtering of elephants for his or her tusks. there is now no longer a regulation hostile to possession of ivory in u.s., or everywhere else distinct than a pair of African international places. classic ivory is yet another keep in recommendations. There has never been an classic ivory confiscation, so no man or woman would have their classic ivory away. Billiard balls were made out of each little ingredient from phenolic resin to stone, alongside with ivory and timber. Your set of classic ivory billiard balls may want to be worth everywhere from $500 to $5000, reckoning on the region and the producer.
