I've assembled four strain gauge KITS from Vernier. The one remaining piece to assemble is the strain gauge element itself. This element needs to be glued to a suitable base material (metal). For forces, say in the 0.1 to 20 newton range, I need some suggestions of suitable metals. I've been hung up for a while since someone advised that mild steel should not be used because of its tendancy to deform under stress. In addition to metal type, some idea of dimensions would be helpful. The element is about 1 x 2 or 3 cm. Weldon Benzinger Eureka High School Eureka, CA
