Check out the mechanism on this analytical scale.(Some mechanical porn)

[XOIIO]

Got this for $20 due to the light not working, I wasn't sure if it was going to be an electrical issue, I thought it might have a digital readout, but aside from the light it's all mechanical and it has a gorgeous mechanism to adjust it. I figure some people here will appreciate it.


This video details the whole process (well, I cut out some of the extremely long boring stuff), skip to 7:32 to see the mechanism, and 26:11 to see the weighing process/readout.

First video I took using my phone for this sort of thing aside from some quick and noise free stuff, apparently the microphone is worse than I thought so I'll have to use an external one for anything that might make noise from here on out.
