i was wondering if there was an easy way to make a scale from house hold objects, like not a digital one but something like the one with two plates and a fulcrum in the middle... something like that, any way i could measure by grams. a paper clip is a gram right?
I've never tried making one, but I found this page on the net:

Just buy a set of scales on ebay. Or try the kitchen for food scales.
Use someone's sig.
"In our area bus passes weigh about 1 gram, maybe you could hold that in one hand and a gram in the other to weigh it out"
Like wtf? lol :p
It is near impossible to use anything else other than real scales. I wish people would stop asking the same question.
You're exaclty right... if it's worth weighing, it's worth weighing properly.Quote:

Small electronic scales are more inconspicuous than a homemade beasty scale lol :pQuote:
