[QUOTE="blipelt, post: 757325, member: 11310"] I have had two digital(Lyman and Scheels) and went back to a balance beam. The new stuff(balance beams) isn't as good as the old balance beams. Ohaus made them years back and you can't go wrong with one of them. The new stuff is outsourced, my 505 was made in Mexico. I just spent $165 for a old Lyman D5 made by Ohaus that Scott Parker tuned up and it will show beam deflection on a half a kernel of RL15. If you want the electronic thing a ma jig you can go to dandy products and get one of these for you balance beam.
