Rather than going to the trouble and expense of buying a set of scales you
might see if there is anyone of the car racing fraternity in your area. The
NASCAR racers that I know have portable scales they use when setting up
their rigs. The one I used fit in a nice little case and had 4 load cells on
a single readout. Speed shops are usually a good place to get information on
the local racing fraternity.
My local AIP also has a set because they have to do new weight and balance
on certified airplanes after equipment changes. The charge was less than
$200., as of a year ago. That might also be worth checking out.
