Re: What scales to weight robot?

We got really lucky and in return for a short demonstration at the "Fur Barn" here in North Bay, Ontario, Canada, they let us use there industrial scale that gets certified all the time because they have to accuratley weigh their furs before they ship them out all over the world. It was within .1 pounds of the competition scale at both the Canadian regionals and the Nationals, and it has a large platform that we easily fit our robot on since it is designed to weigh stuff as big as bear pelts.

Have to love northern Canada, who else can say that they get to hang out with a bunch of trappers to get your robot wieghed.
