Lee Scales Not Returning To Zero - Replace ?

[sirmissalot]

The adjuster has a LOT of range to zero the scale, so I'll ask the daft question: Are you sure the ball bearing is in the "0" groove and not the "10"? Sorry, had to be done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree, something completely out of whack here. Although I'm not a fan of the Lee scale they do work ok, the main gripe being they are just physically too small/light and the Vernier poise is very fiddly to adjust.

When set up and zeroed they are accurate and sensitive although the damping could be better.

Is there and chance of a photo of how you have it set up. I have 30-40 beam scales including a couple Lees so could swap a pan if necessary.

Message me your address and you can have it. I can't sell it as potentially dangerous and I struggle to throw things away so will end up kicking around for ever. It's blue in colour.
