How To
How can you accurately measure wood?
We use several methods to measure wood. We use a digital scale (a tool for measuring distances), a laser-level (used to level your work surface), as well as a bubble level (used in order to level your work surface).
A digital caliper comes with two jaws. The first jaw holds the object, and the second measures the distance between them. The digital caliper is great for measuring small distances like thicknesses of wood.
Laser levels emit an infrared laser beam that projects a straight line across the floor. The laser emits an infrared light beam that projects a line across the floor. If you look down on the line, it will show whether the surface appears even or not. Large surfaces can be checked for accuracy with laser levels.
Bubble levels look similar to a compass. There is a bubble in the center of the device. As long as the bubble is centered, the device will tell you whether the surface is level or not. Bubble levels are great for checking the accuracy and precision of smaller areas.
