 Funny as ray is being Ed, Try the hippy shops in Newcastle mate, where there is a bong there is a set of scales  Just ask your students  Failing that try the local fishing shop, even on line fishing tackle shops , you should find something suitable

 Use digital kitchen scales, then 'calibrate' them by putting coins in placcy bags to make up 3 checkweights covering the scale's range. Then take your weights to the post office and weight them there. If there are significant differences make yourself a table of corrections.

 Frum.....I want portable and easy buddy

 I can recommend these that I bought a while ago from a kitchen shop at Cheshire Oaks - sure they were only about a tenner though They go up to 5 kg which is fine for weighing individual items though maybe not a full sack (ooh-err)

 Frum.....I want portable and easy buddy Then go to a fishing tackle shop and buy one of the things they sell for weighing your catch. Only problem is they are set to multiply true weight by 5 to make the catch sound more impressive.

A bit like Matt C's scales, except his divide by 5!

 Mine are kitchen scales made by Salter and I got them pretty cheaply from Argos. I particularly like them because they make my Laser Comp lighter than the one fb weighed with his!  (But mine are accurate )

Matt you are the only drug dealer I know that doesnt 'cut' with talc owing to your scale's in-built profit margin. Not that I know any other drug dealers. Pssssssssst can you spare a sixteenth until the end of the week?
