Does anyone have a drawing, advertisement, or photograph of the old-style, simple hive scale, that was sold by many bee supply houses before electronic scales became common.
It was a simple platform scale that sat underneath the hive, a crescent-shaped decal that was applied to the side of the hive, and a pointer arm linked to the platform that pointed to the 'weight' on the crescent decal?
If so, can you please send to me at [log in to unmask] I'm giving a talk about modern technologies for bee management, and I've lots of the newer electronic scales, but I'd like to contrast that to the simple, inexpensive scales that were common when I started beekeeping.
I'm not necessarily looking for pictures of a hive on a re-purposed platform scale. I'm looking for the scale sold by the bee equipment suppliers. These used to be very common, but I'm coming up short on an image search.
Thanks Jerry
