Not as a general class of object. There are, IIRC, a few scattered wands in Palladium fantasy products, but nothing in print as a general class of object.

For wands that make do with charges, use the Taismon spell to make them.
May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.
Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.

rather than imbuing the wand with specific spell abilities, I kinda like the more classic view of the wand being more of a conduit to tap mystical resources. The composition material of the wand would give bonuses/penalties to available PPE, spell strength (an often ignored stat), PPE cost for certain families of spells, etc.
what do you think?
Then you need to be calling it a 'focus'. You can find such optional rule in two of the rifters, One in the mystical advantages/disadvantages tables that expand on the tables in TtGD, and the other in the rules dealing with char specilizations, in the magic section. However, I don't recall exactly which two off the top of my head.

Ouchie.

Spell strength bonuses don't apply to rituals.
There you go man, keep as cool as you can.
