My Weigh 11 gram – 55 Carat Pocket Mechanical Scale
Place scale on a flat, level surface and make sure that both slides are in the fullest left position.
TO ZERO YOUR SCALE, move the small middle adjustment sliding weight so that the beam is even (level) with the nearest edge of the base. When weighing objects, powders or granulated materials, be sure that the items are placed in the bowl as close to the center as possible to assure that the bowl is level enough to swing freely. Liquids will center immediately.
TO USE and read you scale is very simple; the lower slide will measure the portions of a Gram, up to 1 Gram. The upper slide adds to that measurement by the number at which it is set. For example: to measure 4.5 Grams, you would set the upper slide at 4, then move the lower slide to .5. To weigh an unknown amount, move the upper slide until the beam falls, move it to the next lower numbered notch then move the lower slide to balance the beam.
IMPORTANT: Every time you use your new scale, be sure that it is zeroed correctly and that the material being weighed is placed in the bowl evenly to allow it to swing freely.

the Pocket Scale 
The mini Pocket Scale became popular in America
 Scales  Pocket scales were also used by doctors and soldiers during the American Civil War. This is a picture of a famous DR. FITCH'S POCKET SCALE. It reads 5g x 0.01g and still works fine today. It was originally created in 1860 and found popularity in the Confederacy. When the Union overtook Virginia (where these scales were made), the scales were produced for the Union army. This style of pocket scale was later perfected and patented in 1885. Interesting enough, we know that if we were to remake this pocket scale exactly as it was in 1885, it would still be a viable product. In some ways, scales have progressed tremendously over the years. However the classic mechanical pocket scale is still a very popular product. Our Current Accugem 2 is mechanically and visually based on this 1885 pocket scale. Era pocket Scales with tool  Here is another Civil War era pocket scale. This mini scale had a capacity of 10g and read in 0.02g increments. It came complete with a scoop and tool (not unlike the current Palmscale & Flipscale). It only makes logical sense to pack some user-friendly tools with the scale and the early Americans were no stranger to marketing :) Pocket Scales  This hanging style pocket scale is circa 1600. If you look at our current "Hand Scales" you will be amazed at how close they are to this antique Italian pocket scale with Roman design. |
