How To
How do you measure wood accurately?
Wood measurement can be done using several methods. 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).
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 emit an infrared laser beam that projects a straight line across the floor. The laser emits a red dot along the line. If you look down on the line, it will show whether the surface appears even or not. 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. As long as the bubble remains centered, the device can tell you if the surface has been leveled. For checking the accuracy of small areas, bubble levels are useful.
