Default Cheapest Scale to use to weigh models

I have an Ohaus triple-beam scale and a cheapo gram scale. The Ohaus I use for mixing epoxy and balancing rotor blades; the cheapo digi-scale is used for weighing anything too heavy for the Ohaus.

Problem is that the cheapo scale wasn't very accurate - 5 grams or 1/2 oz. Yuck!

I just ordered a 6Kg/13lb scale from "oldwillknott" on eBay. Accurate to .01 oz or 1 gram. $40 bucks, delivered.

ANyone want my old scale? Cheap! Ignore the glue spills on the platform.
