[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2931385, member: 15054"] You can make an easy scale. I used a wood dowel rod.. an arrow shaft will also work. Find the middle of the shaft . drill a hole or just tie a good knot around the middle with some stout fishing string..I use 60lb braid. hang this dowel rod /shaft from a shelf or use a hook and hang it from the door trim in a bedroom. Picture this a wooden rod hanging from the ceiling from a string the rod is hanging perfectly horozontal. I attached a string at both ends and hung a cup at both ends on the string. If one end hangs lower add some duct tape or other tape to the lighter side to make them hang the same. You have a powder scale that goes to 1000 ,, now you can weigh 1000 or 2000 gr or whatever and add it to one of the cups. and place something in the other cup to make it hang perfectly horozontal add or remove weight now you have your cheap scale. I built a table top model for weighing fishing sinkers I made from a wooden mold I made. It is very accurate. I tried to splain this the bestest i could :) [/QUOTE]
