How do you use the displacement method to find the volume of an irregularly shaped object?

Half fill a graduated glass beaker with water and note the level. Place irregularly shaped object into the beaker. Note the new level. The difference between the two levels is the volume of the object. cw: OK, that method works for objects that don't get wet -- like steel. Tissue paper would not be a good candidate. Also, if the object floats, you have to submerge the object.
