No, the fingers ain't broken... I won the CG machine (the one I broke) at a club thing a couple of years ago. I had grown to depend on it and like it. When I accidentally stepped on it a couple months ago, I started to have withdrawal symptoms without it. So, it became my security blankie...

Ok...ok.. I did it with my fingers and just wasn't sure about the stability. And besides, I needed an extra hand to put the weights on and balance it... not that I couldn't put them on then pick it back up..

Hey, what can I say. But, 7 1/4 ounces. Not bad, not good. I liked the Protege that didn't need one stinking weight..
