Measuring Kit

Whenever working on any home improvement project, i’ve found it essential to have the right measuring tools.  Here are a few common items I always have on hand to make sure all my projects come out just right.

Plumb Bob

Magnetic level – great for hanging pictures.

Framing square – this larger square is used for bigger projects, and as a straightedge for layout marks on my woodworking projects.

I keep all the smaller, most used items in a little drawer right on my workbench.  When I’ve got a project that isn’t at my bench, I simply pull the drawer all the way out, and take it to where ever I’m working.  That way everything I need is at my fingertips.
