Hi folks,

I have built two kits up to now (actually just finishing the second one which is a 4* sixty), and lets just say that so far I have emphasized more on "strength" rather than "weight". As I move to my next project however, I would like to try and build models that are lighter so I was thinking of buying a scale.

Doing a quick search on line, I found a large variety costing anywhere from $25 up - but at that price I would question the accuracy. Obviously extreme precision is not required for my purposes, but I also don't want something that is too far off the mark. The other question is, what scale capacity should I get: a scale rated for a max. weight of 75 lb. is prabably not very precise at the lower end of the range, and a scale rated for 10 lb. is probably going to be too small for some project down the road.

I would appreciate any suggestions you may have.
