How I use my gem-20 scale

Everyone knows that you can't tare and weigh from there, you have to add a significant weight and then measure delta in weight as you add capsule and powder or just powder ... Problem I was having is the stupid calibration weights that come with the scale take up the whole nice little weigh dish basically making it useless and they fall over if you're clumsy and you bump the weight with the filled capsule ruining what you were doing.

So in a flash of brilliance I decided to use a nickel instead of the calibration weight and put it under the pan. Viola now I can use the little pan to weight and then dump while leaving the nickel on the scale.  Since you're measuring delta anyways it doesn't matter if the nickel is exactly 5 gr or if you use a foreign coin as long as it gets you to that window of accuracy.

So leave the calibration weights for calibrating and use a nickel under the pan when weighing your lab supplies :)

  3. A @ AnnaSofia: Thanks @Deepnorth !!
  4. Deepnorth @ Deepnorth: @AnnaSofia absolutely. Sometimes I cringe when I look at the shop box because I never knew what I’m going to see but I think you worded it very well.
  5. A @ AnnaSofia: I got cut off. .. be careful that it’s not some non-verified vend trying to swoop in and scam if u do post “who offers it.” Amd finally, I know I’m guilty but try to keep this stuff to DM’s or the forum threads instead of SB. Good luck Ronald!
  6. A @ AnnaSofia: whoever you guys are talking about I hope you have posted your experience in his thread so people know. I agree with Layne that a brand new vend is more likely to want to save the day. But also be careful
  7. RonaldDonald @ RonaldDonald: @st1ckyf1ng4z I wish I could man. I’m rural and new to town idk anyone.
  8. st1ckyf1ng4z @ st1ckyf1ng4z: Hit the b10cķ if you’re in a p!nch, depending on where you are located that book is not hard to find. @RonaldDonald
  9. L @ Layne_Cobain: @RonaldDonald post your question about anyone who can express 4 or overnight in the “who offers it” thread maybe get a hit from one of these new vendors with that on the menu there’s a good # of them now
  10. L @ Layne_Cobain: I know he talked such a good game with me when I emailed and in his thread @RonaldDonald and your right begging for ppl to leave good review but then ghosts everyone not a good look at all
  11. RonaldDonald @ RonaldDonald: @Layne_Cobain I have not :( and still nothing on ID. I’m freaking out and WDs are coming very soon. Idk why this dude cant just say something. I really trusted him, I could have/should have went with my regular. But no, homie was begging for good reviews and now he does some ghosting to new custees (3-4 of us) not good. ANYONE KNOW AN EXPRESS OR OVERNIGHT/2nd DAY with some #4

  14. RonaldDonald @ RonaldDonald: Really hoping this day gets better. Alllll I need is someone who respects peoples time, money and concerns. Why is that so hard for some people. I’m as respectful as I possibly can be until I can’t anymore. PLEASE just stick to your word vendors. I know I’m not the only one.
