I got my scale at Harbor freight for about $20 bucks, It works good enough to weigh rc parts.

i too use the harbor freight special. it weighs parts, fairly accurately, most of the time.

I have 2 scales, I believe both are made by Pelouze. One is a 4 or 5lb max for small stuff. The other is a 10lb scale for weighing a full rig. |

cool, thanks gentlemen. i appreciate the feedback. i went to a couple sites yesterday and found that Zeies makes scales....great german company for optics...so, if they are making scales, i can trust thier name. i do apprciate all the replies though... PS - dont lend your scale to the pot head up the street....he will break it thats my tip for today....enjoy! paul |
