Randy,

I used one bathroom scale that I had calibrated using a scale in the Dr's

office.  I made paltforms for the wheels with no scale.  Be sure to level

the airplane both fore and aft and side to side every time you take a

reading.  I used a hose and clear tubing to make a level to level the

airplane fore and aft.  I set a 4 foot level on the top and boosted the low

end to get it level so I would have a good reference for the measurements.

I also set it across the fuselage top for side to side level.  I repeated

the measurements to be sure nothing changed.
