How To
How do I accurately measure wood?
Wood measurement can be done using several methods. A digital caliper is a tool that measures distances. We also use a laser level to ensure your work surface flattens.
A digital caliper can have two jaws, which open and close. One jaw holds the measured object while the other measures the distance between the two points. Digital calipers are great for measuring small distances, such as 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. The device has a bubble at its center. The device will inform you if the surface is level if the bubble is in the center. The bubble levels can be used to check the accuracy of smaller areas.
