[QUOTE="WalnLiz, post: 35582, member: 147"] Confusing looking calculation you have there mate....lay mans version... 1. Weigh dry stone. "A" 2. Get small plastic container (eg marg tub), fill with enough water to submerge the stone without hitting sides or bottom. Tare your scales to zero. 3. Suspend stone and record weight. "B" 4. Divide "A" by "B"....that equals SG. 5. If SG is above 2.65 do a dance of excitement ;) .....but make sure no one is watching. :D Cheers Wal. [/QUOTE]
