Hi, I'd be grateful for advice as to what kind of wood I would
need
snipped

Cheers for this. I might give it a go but would prefer to get a wood
sheet or strips.

Does the wood look anything like the description given of lignum vitae
on this page :

Some of them are unpainted. If a photo will help identify what wood they
are made of, please click he

If I can find out what wood it is, I'll be halfway there, because it
would be great to make them out of the same material. They are very
strong...

They look like beech to me. Your ruler is probably boxwood.
