Default Greyhound Scales

Could some one help me out and tell me where they get their scales? I recall seeing an add in one of the g'hound papers a while back but I didn't keep it. I'd prefer one with a cage. Even if its second hand I don't mind - as long as it's reliable. I'm in vic.

Try: Somerset Walkers

Theyre website aint working, but they have the scales seen at race tracks, for about $600. Its not digital though.

Also these types are great, just need to build a stand for it and drill it in if wanting a cage put on too.

the stainless platform on those scales is removable,I dont see why you couldnt take it off bolt it to the centre of thecage and reset it on the machine and tare it off.

Good scales, have been reliable for me.

Yep had a better squizzy at mine (i bought them off of forum member Hercules) thats what he did - took the metal platform off and drilled it to a nice size rectangle board which my dogs stand on.

So should work a treat!
