How To
How do you measure wood accurately?
We use several methods 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 comes with two jaws. One jaw holds the measured object while the other measures the distance between the two points. The digital caliper is great for measuring small distances like thicknesses of wood.
Laser levels are equipped with an infrared light beam, which projects a line across a floor. The laser emits red dots on the line. You can check if the surface is level by looking down at the line. Laser levels are best for checking the accuracy of large surfaces.
Bubble levels look similar to a compass. The center of the device contains a bubble. As long as the bubble remains centered, the device can tell you if the surface has been leveled. Bubble levels can be used for checking the accuracy in smaller areas.
