Re: Weighing the Robot
If medical or athletic scales are not available, there is one simple method that we have used in the past. Take your robot down to the nearest parcel shipping store (FedEx, MailBoxes Etc., UPS Store, and others). Tell them what you are doing, and ask if they will weigh your robot on their shipping scales. It is so different from what they usually are asked to do, that most of them are more than glad to help.
