Weighing conrods

[Adam25]

Can anyone reccomend the sort of scales i need for weighing my conronds? And where i could get them from? i did look on ebay but they where all hong kong specials:wtf:

hong kong specials is what i use, just need to be accurate to within a gram for engine balancing

Drugs scales are the best.

Drugs from chemists etc.

Accurate to something supid.

like 100th of a gramme:)

Coke dealers like these alsolol

Best to take them to a specialist machine shop who will balance them properly, theres more to it than just weighing them.

the little end needs supporting & the big end weighted, then vice versa.

Never heard anything about supporting the little end before, whats the reasoning behind it? And do you mean scales they use in the chemists or they actually sell them there?

Never heard anything about supporting the little end before, whats the reasoning behind it? And do you mean scales they use in the chemists or they actually sell them there?because you balance each end of the rod separately. if you dont know that maybe you shouldnt be attempting it

[Adam25]

How do you weigh each end seperately?

How do you weigh each end seperately?by supporting the opposite end as already said
