Bubba,
It looks like the link does not exist on the page anymore. Would you have an
electronic copy of the plans?
Thanks
Dean

Digital automotive scales can be had new for around $1000.00 for a set
of four.
There are also a lot of the bathroom-scale-conversion setups which are
pretty cheap.

Look for Longacre or intercomp.

The link below has a way to make your own.

My EAA chapter is looking for a set of aircraft scales. We can't break

good

accuracy at a reasonable price?



Government surplus could be a source. When I needed some, I talked to my
buddy who worked at McC...... an Air Force base. He borrowed two digital
truck scales from the motor pool.
