Default Thrust in pounds?

call me crazy but does anyone know how to get the thrust amount from an engine. My idea is to buy or barrow (no steelling) a digital fish scale. tie it to a post or in that fashion, the other end to your plane, (loop around the vert. fin and horiz, fin, over the top and under the horizontals. crank her up and pull the scale horizontal. (flat serface), I know it won't be exact, but close. does anyone agree or dissagree, or better idea? please help.
