[QUOTE="FearNoWind, post: 1090001, member: 50867"] Yes, Mike, that's right. No matter what's on the end of the beam, as long as the beam is set to zero all weight is registered relative to that zero. I've seen some scales with extended pointers made from everything from plastic rods to sharpened lengths of brass attached to the factory assembly. Frankly, I don't see much value in it. I do use a prism to avoid parallax when reading my beam scale (trying to make sure it's centered on the zero line when looking at it from an angle is too difficult and dropping down to bench level with every weight charge is more than tiresome) but aligning the beam center line with the fixed zero center line is not a problem at all.
