Does it have to be digital?
While it can be a little awkward to use for larger pieces and
completed models, the reloading balance that I have is very accurate.
To address the above, I made a small wire hook that hangs on the edge
of the pan with the balance at the edge of the workbench.

Are you willing to be a little creative in your acquisition?
I walked into a local shop in California and bought it used for $25.
It was selling new for about $60 at the time and I see has inched up
to almost $100.
I've also seen the Ohaus triple beam balances available well below
market when a local school redid their labs as well as at police
auctions. I used one for years and found it worked really well for
most modeling needs up to its capacity.
