measurement
In Dutch we call this an Unster, I could not find a suitable English word (apart from steelyard, but this weighing device works with a spring, not levers).
I don't know how old it is, probably came via my grandfather. So for this Macro Monday occasion I took it out of the garden (where the birdfeeder hangs off it), gave it a Brasso treatment and checked the weight of my Tamron 600mm lens, weighing in at just over 2Kg, which is only about 200 grams too much, so still quite accurate....!
