Front of scale I use to take approximate measurements of specimens in pics I am uploading on flickr.com. (purchased along with other estate sale items, in a rockshop, 2 years ago.)
The AWS LS-1000 scale was a great purchase for $30. It can measure to the hundreth of an ounce, plus it rounds up or down (to the nearest 0 or 5) in the thousandth place.

Breakout Session: Scaling Impact Enterprises
Creating energy from landfills, connecting women-led coffee cooperatives with international buyers, verifying medications by mobile phone. The audacious ideas of social entrepreneurs can change the world, but critical barriers often inhibit these ideas from getting off the ground. While social entrepreneurs confront challenges typical for most entrepreneurs—such as access to capital, markets, and talent—by virtue of their business model they face added obstacles. Already expected to deliver on ambitious social and environmental returns in addition to financial returns, they also contend with greater institutional investor skepticism and appeasing a wider array of stakeholders. Social enterprises have nonetheless experienced significant growth, with traditional and impact investors committing more than $10 billion to these companies over the last four years—tripling their investments.
In this session, successful social entrepreneurs from around the world will share challenges from their work, as well as opportunities they see to achieve greater impact by scaling impact enterprises. Leaders from the private, public, and civil society sectors will also discuss how CGI members can:
• Design innovative approaches for impact enterprise talent recruitment, development, and retention.
• Define, measure, and communicate the social and environmental impact of social enterprises.
• Incorporate impact enterprises into their supply chains.
• Scale programs that support women and minority-owned enterprises.

The highest waterfall in the Lake District with a single fall of around 120 feet. Total fall around 170 feet.
Lovely Tiny scale model of a Beach in the former Democratic Republic of Germany. The public authorities promoted nudism. At least one good thing they did. The bad news is that (according to this museum) the reasons were two: a)shortage of textile production and b) in general, a quite liberal sexual education (but only with hetero-reproductive purposes, to provide more workers for the system).
Just before Christmas Lidl had an offer on display cases, they were 2 for £55 so I brought 4. Here are 3 of the cases. They currently have Benelux and German models in them. They sit above the layout.

You have to keep the weight down to under 5 pounds, or it just wont get off the ground. Converting shaft drive mechs to cable, allows me to keep tail rotor blades in there scale position.
I just like the colour contrasts, the bright ferns and tree against the brooding sky, and the lichen adds a splash of yellow on the posts. The path on the right is the circular route around Scaling Dam reservoir, we should have worn more waterproof shoes!

My mom got these from the post office as an interesting promotion. Each is cleverly designed such that a one, two, or three pound weight, respectively, will cause it's tip to touch the table top. These can be stacked to sum weights.
The mathematician in me thinks they should have chosen one, two and four pound ratings, as to create a superincreasing sequence.
You see, choosing which scales to combine is equivalent to the knapsack problem, an NP-complete problem which is rendered trivial by superincreasing sequences.
