We have tested the above rig and find it entirely satisfactory. The readings obtained agree exactly with the first rig. We suggest you have it dull plated before despatch to prevent rust. Please make 4 plates for raising the finger to sketch below. < 1.350 ±20 > .500 ±20 3.000 ±50 .300 ±20 O .093 hole 4OFF S/M 16 SWG Also the stop screw in the end of the beam should be filed down so that the weight slider will pass over it thus.
