Am thinkining of DIYing this growth chart so that we can take it with us if we move. Does anyone know where to get 1 inch x 6 feet x 8 inch pine wood with smooth finish. Also, can that be trasported in a taxi? Got the idea from here http://517creations.blogspot.sg/2011/04/ruler-growth-chart-pottery-barn-knock.html
