I make sculptures of porcelain that weigh up to 15 pounds. Will this display work for me? Ideally i would want one RPM speed.

I didn't have the vibration problem, but my sculptures only weigh about 3-4 pounds. I don't think it would handle 15 very well.

Probably, but that might be a little heavy. I use it with a professional digital camera.

Don't think so, I bought it to display a small sculpture that I purchased, and I tested it out by putting something on it that was not breakable, and it vibrated so much that it shook the item off

I believe the scale would be inch pounds, I just multiply / divide by 12 as required and note that the 250 inch pound variation is equivalent to just over 20 foot pounds. There is also a metric scale as well. Look for other versions listed, some variations are scaled in foot pounds and make sure you get one that covers the max torque you might need. I purchased both 3/8 and 1/2 drive versions and have been very happy with them. Note, make sure you set them back to minimum torque values during storage to keep the calibration.

Though I have not tried that, I am going to guess no. I believe that the total capacity of this scale is 15 lbs, so when you place an object on the scale and then press the button for the tare feature, all the scale has done is reset the readout to zero...but it is still registering the weight of the container because it is still carrying the weight of the container. In other words, if you need a scale that will handle more than 15 lbs including the container, go ahead and buy one that will handle more weight.

Yes it will, its very accurate. That is an odd claim for someone to make lol. great scale I love mine.

As I work only in HO scale, I would be reluctant to advise you about anything dealing with S guage. I can suggest that you might get in touch with Model Train Stuff as they have answered several teachical questions for me in the past. You can find their contact information on the Internet.

Not sure I understand the question ("...is that so wanted?")--but all I can say is that a display of speed might be useful; however, I do not see it as a necessity. With a bit of experience, it becomes clear how fast to turn a piece.

I have used my scale often and like it. It has 6 modes, including Newtons. Only says "Bench top-Pro" for model.

No. It responds quickly to weight changes. you might raise the object up and use the tare. that way you could see the display.

No idea on the max load. It spins as fast as ypu spin it yourself - not motorized. But you shouldn't need a lot of speed for the task that it is designed for.

Yes great scale, I use it for paint, molds, casting. Its on the button for what I use for.

I would not be able to do that... i bought this for my own personal use (in home I am by no means a professional)... it is quite accurate!!! It could measure in both lbs. and kg depending on your preference..

This was the perfect scale for me. It is now cheaper than I paid. (I don't mind). I don't see the need for wheels. The free delivery was really fast. I put mine together on a table. otherwise it might take two people. I read about other buyers having to readjust the scale often. I have never had to. Hope you have as good an experience as I have.

Haven't thrown it on a scale, but it's pretty hefty. Any blender rated in horsepower is going to be pretty heavy--and needs to have the gravity to stay put when doing some heavy blending. I love mine

It depends on how much you want it to spin ... The more weight, the slower it goes

VERY perceptive question-- I'm happy to report that this constantly surprisingly capable device can indeed be tweaked to revolve at very slow speeds. Keep in mind that the weight on the turntable you're trying to tweak is a key aspect-- and the turntable weights I've personally had actual experience tweaking to very slow revolving speeds are quite slight = original art work smallish sculptures. So, keeping that fact in mind, here's how I do it ... I *Power On* the turntable with the smooth-turning Speed Control Knob turned all the way "Off" = no turntable movement at all. Then, I gradually turn the smooth-turning Speed Control Knob in the *Increase Speed* direction until it starts revolving. And now here comes the *Tweak Trick*-- since the turntable is ***already revolving,*** I can now v-e-r-y gradually reverse-turn that Speed Control Knob in the *Lower Speed* direction ... and Lo & Behold, the turntable will start to slow down, so much so, that it's turning very slowly. Like I said-- amazing and surprising capabilities. BUT-- if you yourself are intending to set a relatively *greater* weight on the turntable, hoping to achieve the same v-e-r-y slow RPM's that I and my very light weights can achieve-- at this moment ***I don't know from actual experience if that's possible.*** But I'd be more than happy to set any weight you'd like me to test for you on the device, and then see What's What regarding v-e-r-y slow RPM's and the weights you intend to use, and then report the results back to you. Your v-e-r-y perceptive technical question is exactly the same sort of question I'd be asking in your circumstances ... and so, I'll try to help you out just as much as vice-versa.

Amy- I am not sure. I would say 1/2 pound to 1 pound. I put a one pound weight on one of mine to test and it for you and it seemed ok. Personally I used the block shelves (I have six floor to ceiling on one wall) to display my collection of Russian fairy tale lacquer boxes. They are super light even when I have up to 3 on one block. I'd say the only risk if you went to heavy would be that the box would pull out of the dry wall? Hope this helps.

I returned mine due to inaccuracy, but I remember reading about the switch in the user's manual. I think it selects whether the weight displayed is the instantaneous weight or the maximum weight over a period of time. Check the manual if you've got it.
