How To
How do you measure wood accurately?
We have several ways to measure 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 first jaw holds the object, and the second measures the distance between them. Digital calipers are great for measuring small distances, such as thicknesses of wood.
Laser levels feature an infrared-light beam that projects lines across the floor. The laser emits an infrared light beam that projects a line across the floor. By looking down the line, you can see whether the surface is even or not. Laser levels are ideal for checking the accuracy on large surfaces.
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 can be used for checking the accuracy in smaller areas.
