Jusoda Kid 1 Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Anyone know the the correct term for them scales they used to use in fruit shops and sweet shops and where i could get some from. Checked e-bay and can't find any but I'm sure they must have a technical name TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 53622 Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Why at scales-r-us of course! http://www.scales-r-us.com/scales.php/Scales/33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jusoda Kid 1 Posted April 13, 2007 Author Share Posted April 13, 2007 I don't really want digital as there not the best for what I'm weighing i.e something thats moving. The type Im after is them big old ones with the glass front. I think I'll have to have a trip around old fruit shops asking if they've any left over over from when they switched from imperial to metric. Cheers anyway though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catmag 547 Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 I'm intrigued! What are you weighing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As some of you know I have an interest in Falconry and now that I've got a shit load of time on my hands I'll be getting my own Hawk this year. Thing is the weight thing is a very important aspect of Falconry so I'll be needing some decent scales for weighing the bird and it's food. The old style can be customised to incorporate a perch for the bird to stand on whilst weighing, tahts why i want that style. Don't worry I'll get some.

Jusoda Kid 1 Posted April 13, 2007 Author Share Posted April 13, 2007 If i was using scales like that for weighing gear I don't think I'd be sitting posting on a Footy forum and if i was it would be from my private Island somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
