<DIV>If you have a good digital scale you can modify them pretty easily, or at
least I could on the ones I have. They were all heavy, so fixing them
amounted to removing weight. I didn't have to add anything for any of the
weights. The 32-gram weight now looks like Swiss cheese, but it is now
32-grams!</DIV>

I had the small set of brass weights common from the big houses. A
pharmacist friend of mine checked them with a very accurate scale and they
were not even close to the #’s stamped on the disks. </SPAN></FONT></P>
