FYI

The other evening at the first Cabelas fly-tying night, Ryan Barns suggested that a good buy would be a small scale to weigh some of the Czech and Polish nymphs. After looking at some fairly expensive scales, I found a few that fit my budget and seem to work great. The one I got is pocket sized, allows one to weigh in grams, oz, troy oz, and penny weight. It can weigh up to 300 grams.
The total cost (including shipping) was under $30. There was another older model for less than $10. The manufacturer is "My Weigh" and the model is 300-Z (the model less than $10 is the 200-Z). The accuracy is 0.1 grams, and it has a digital meter.

Go to one of the smoke shops in town. They have the pocket scales.

I probably got one laying around in an old dusty box along with a 'tobbaco use only' water pipe (bong for the lay-person).
