[QUOTE="ShootnMathews, post: 936070, member: 59915"] I noticed with mine that how the pan hangs on the scale actually made a big difference in the reading. By that I mean how precise you are about setting the pan in the exact same spot. Sliding it forward or backwards on the hook will make it heavier or lighter by changing the degree of leverage the pan can create on the arm. What I have done that helps me get more consistent loads is this: Instead of the pan arm having a hook on top I have straightened the tip so that when you sit the pan on the table the arm comes up from the pan and the tip sticks out horizontal, or parallel to the table. I the use the scarp edge of a file to make a very small notch in the underside of the arm tip. Now when I set the pan on the scale I slide it over until I feel the pan set into the notch. The pan is now setting on the scale in an identical manner each time. Make sense? This made my loads much more Consistent. Jared [/QUOTE]
