grain scale
« on: May 21, 2015, 02:08:55 am »
In addition to the spine tester below, I am looking for a good, inexpensive grain scale.  Any suggestions on brand/model?

3Rivers(a sponsor) had digital grain scales that are very reasonable.

I buy this one (see picture below) from ebay.  They wear out after a couple years but they're less than $15.
