How To
How do you measure wood accurately?
There are many methods for measuring wood. A digital caliper is a tool that measures distances. We also use a laser level to ensure your work surface flattens.
A digital caliper has two jaws that open and close. The one jaw holds the object to be measured, while the other measures distance between them. The digital caliper is great for measuring small distances like thicknesses of wood.
Laser levels have an infrared light beam that projects a line across the floor. The laser emits a red dot along the line. The line can be viewed down to determine if the surface has an even surface. For larger surfaces, laser leveling is the best method of checking accuracy.
Bubble levels look similar to a compass. There is a bubble at the center of this device. As long as the bubble is centered, the device will tell you whether the surface is level or not. Bubble levels can be used for checking the accuracy in smaller areas.
