I was surprised that moving the weight around on the pan didn't make much difference in the reading. Maybe Leo can explain why. At any rate I may try to make a larger pan and also an adapter to hang motors for weighing. I'm also considering buying another one or two of these for backups and putting my Acculab up for sale.

Thanks, Bill. That seems much better than what I did. i glued a small balsa platform to the supplied thimble, but it is still not stable enough and the display can be somewhat obscured. I'll copy you to glue on an adapter tube and raise and enlarge the pan, and maybe make two sizes of pan.

The link above is some info on the $15 milligram scale I bought recently. The scale seems to perform very well. The message above shows a simple adaptation I made to get around the problem of the tiny weighing pan.
