How To
How can you accurately measure wood?
We have several ways 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 can have two jaws, which 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 use an infrared beam of light to project a line across the ground. 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. Large surfaces can be checked for accuracy with laser levels.
Bubble levels look similar to a compass. The device has a bubble at its center. 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.
