How To

How can you measure wood accurately?

There are many methods for measuring wood. We use a digital ruler (a tool to measure distances), laser level (used for leveling your work surface), and bubble level (used for levelling your work surface).

Two jaws are available on a digital scaler. One can open and the other close. One jaw holds the object being measured and the other measures the distance between them. The digital scale is perfect for measuring tiny distances such as wood thickness.

Laser levels use an infrared beam of light to project a line across the ground. The laser emits an infrared light beam that projects a line across the floor. It is possible to see if the surface of the surface are even by looking down at it. Laser levels are ideal for checking the accuracy on large surfaces.

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. Bubble levels are good for checking the accuracy of smaller areas.
