> >   Now, where do I get a hive scale... :)

From your bathroom, when your spouse is not looking.
Just lift one side of a hive, slip in the bathroom scales up to a line u
draw across the middle (so u always put it in the smawe place), and lower
the hive on.  Not very accurate but enough t separate light hives from heavy
ones - and more reliable than just hefting by hand.
