Now why in the hell couldn't I think of that?!?!? 
Consider the idea stolen!

The wood stirs are good for making spoke wheels and such for wagons.  :-)

but You don't need to ruin Your teeth for some spoked wheels 

how comes that fencing (the thing about separating open spaces) is the same word used for the swashbuckling sport with the blades?

I could have clearly mistaken the topic title

Hehe already have a load of these coffee stirrers made up as fences just need to get some balsa for posts.. Got all mine from that hell hole known as IKEA just shoved a load in a handbag...

[former user]

this is a perfect excuse to hit on someone 
outside in the parking lot:

"excuse me Miss, I just used Your handbag to steal coffee-stirrers. Can I have them please?
Oh, btw, can I buy You one?" 

[joroas]

Take your wife and then you can dump them in her bag, I did............

I may look in a chemist for tongue depressers, they may be the big lolly sticks I'm looking for.......

[joroas]

Rymans the Stationers sell the big lollipop sticks/tongue depressers in packs of 50 for £1.49.  They also sell the small lolly sticks.

The dollar stores out here in the northwest USA all seem to carry fairly large bags of wooden sticks in a number of sizes for a dollar.

Popscicle sticks are 2xs thickness of coffee stir sticks and much wider. To get the stir sticks to a scale width for fence slats or boards, you may have to split them. I used thin styren plastic sheeting cut thin and then assembled my fencing. Long sections, short sections and knocked down sections. Heres a link to a standing section
