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 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 calculator is ideal for measuring very small distances, like the thicknesses or wood.
Laser levels are equipped with an infrared light beam, which projects a line across a floor. The laser emits a red dot along 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. There is a bubble at the center of this device. The device will indicate whether the surface is level as long as it is centered. The bubble levels can be used to check the accuracy of smaller areas.
