This thread probably exists, but, in need of a cheap mg scale.

[The Real Peter Parker]

The chemicals I'm dealing with probably, could be off by .002 either way, but not any more than that as far as allowance. I've looked around, but I like to see stuff in action before I buy it... Anyone get one recently and like it? If so link me up.

Save up and get an expensive one.
not something to cheap out on.
But I think I've seen on Amazon and ebay if you must have a cheap one.

Well man, the only way to get money is to make money, the only way to make money is if I'm in possession of a mg scale... well I think I'm going to use the divide method... 250 mgs divided into 2 equal piles is 125. Divide into 5 equal piles, from each pile, makes 10 25 mg piles. From there I can handle it, right? This isn't the most dangerous RC exactly that I'm dealing with.

I have one like that florida.. its actualy quite nice and very accurate around the 10g point.
When accuracy is critical I normally preload it with a coin or two.
It also comes with a cheap tweazer and a 10g calibration weight

Perfect for DMT, although I rarely use a scale these days unless I'm doseing someone else.... everybody always want to know how much they had for some reason... asif they had anything to compare it with.

If absolute accuracy is important you need to look at something with a smaller range like 0.001-10g.

even $1000 scales won't have a repeatability figure of less than 2mg unless its something like 100g max.

Save up and get a nice set of acculabs.

I have that exact one. They're not bad, if you calibrate it with the 10g weight and leave it 5mins, you'll come back to it saying 9.997g or something...but I've been using mine for jwh and had no problems.

Always remember to weigh on a flat surface though, I was confused at first that without anything on the scales it was giving a reading of 0.006g until i realised it was because i was resting it on the box!

 

[floridasucks]

sounds good to me.

 

[ANC]

Yep they are... i think most of the Hong Kong cheapies on ebay are safe bets... thats where I got mine

cheap scale is definitely better than divide and conquer.

I paid $20 for my milligram scale and it was accurate as fuck. not when you weighed shit <10mg though. I would always weigh a capsule, record weight, insert substance into capsule, record new weight and subtract the capsule weight from it. pretty soon after doing it 10 times I was able to eyeball it +-2mg each time I did it.

how long did it take to get to ya?

 

[ANC]

Mine took 10 days from hong kong to South Africa...

Also I have sent many electronic kits over to the USA,and it seldomly takes more than 10 work days in ordinary mail.

 

[floridasucks]

cool, i just ordered mine. im hoping it gets here soon. just got 8oz of bark, gonna do an extract 2maro mornin.

So divide and conquer is a no-go? What about mixing with a certain amount of 'liquid the certain chemical in question is soluble in' and dividing that way?
