[QUOTE="RedDirtDigger, post: 298854, member: 2964"] Its handy to have the calibration weights with any scales you buy. The cheapy scales work fine but after going through a few of them over the years, having the correct calibration weights helps get them back on track if the scales can be calibrated/checked. Having a couple calibration weights handy takes the doubt away about the accuracy of your scales. Also its worth getting a cheap slim line set of 5kg kitchen scales for the car for when you get a big specie or slug. Nothing worse then being in a remote place and having to try guess the weight of a larger piece around the campfire waiting for a week or so until you get back to a bigger set of scales. [/QUOTE]
