How To
How do you accurately measure wood?
We use several methods to measure wood. We use a digital caliper (a tool used to measure distances), a laser level (used to make sure your work surface is flat), and a bubble level (used to make sure your work surface is perpendicular).
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 have an infrared light beam that projects a line across the floor. The laser emits red dots on the line. By looking down the line, you can see whether the surface is even or not. For large surfaces, laser levels are the best way to check their accuracy.
Bubble levels look similar to a compass. There is a bubble in the center of the device. As long as the bubble remains centered, the device can tell you if the surface has been leveled. The bubble levels can be used to check the accuracy of smaller areas.
