Dude, I hear ya. Spent all your cash on an eighth and now you have none lef over to buy a ruler with which to measure it?

I see you are in US, a dollar bill weighs one gram. There are 3.5 grams in an eighth. Take four one dollar bills, tear one in half, make a balance and put the eighth on one side, and three and a half dollar bills on the other side.

If you're REALLY short on cash, put a nickel on the side opposite the eighth, and a dollar bill on the side with it. A nickel weighs 4.5 grams, so you cancel out one of those extra grams with the dollar bill.

Ok, I understand you're short on cash, I'll now tell you how to save an extra four cents. A penny after 1982 weighs 2.5 grams. Just put one of those and a dollar bill on one side to balance with your sack. Also, remember that the baggie it's in weighs something, so make sure you use an identical one on the other side for the balance money, or use two identical containers. So are you thinking ya got ripped off or somethin?

a jolly rancher wrapped weighs about a gram also.I made a balance scale once a long time ago with some very large paperclips and a saftey pin and used 3 1/2 jolly ranchers for a counterwieght.(found the weight of a single jolly by doing the math off the serving/total weight)I remember we weighed a bag of weed afterwards ata friends that was suppose to be an 1/8th(3.5g)and it was actually 3.67g.So i think thats pretty close for jolly ranchers. :smile:

There's a thimble rule somewhere on the site...I've seen it in another thread asking about shroom dosage.

It would take some searching to find though.

I just made my own "justice is blind"/"libra" scale anyway

Shoestring....a butterknife...two ziplock bags

A feat I consider mcguiver-esque.
