How To
How do I accurately measure wood?
We use many 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).
Two jaws are available on a digital scaler. One can open and the other close. One jaw holds a measured object and the other measures distances between the points. The digital caliper is great for measuring small distances like thicknesses of wood.
Laser levels feature an infrared-light beam that projects lines across the floor. The laser emits a red dot along the line. The line can be viewed down to determine if the surface has an even surface. 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. The device will inform you if the surface is level if the bubble is in the center. Bubble levels are great for checking the accuracy and precision of smaller areas.
