Wonderful tones.

Interesting. Take away the known weight of the truck
and you have the weight of its load.
Thanks Cindy & Terry

Very nice detail and color!! Well done Cindy!

Ohhh, I think you are right, Cindy - a 20-ton scale - must have been for
weighing trucks.....
Cindy Flood15-Dec-2011 15:42
This scale was probably used to weigh those old trucks when they were loaded with ore coming out of the goldmine.

Thanks Bob, Terry and Hal. Isn't it 40,000 lbs??? Maybe I'll have to take another drive out to the mine and check this out.

Perfect, Cindy. Love that detail.
PS Mention to Hal its only a 4,000 pound
scale :)

Most unusual and clever Cindy.
Must be a big scale. ls that 9000 lbs ??

What an unusual item. Is it a balance beam on a scale?
