In Reply to: Getting accurate stylus force gauge readings posted by Peter C on March 15, 2017 at 05:23:06:
I have a cheap two part plastic Shure gauge someone gave me years ago.
I find it is all I need.
The damn electronic scale I bought would need new batteries every time. and seemed a PITA to use.
The Shure is EASY to use. And may just last for ANOTHER 50 years.
