The HSCo steel yard type platform scale is a classic mechanical platform scale read on a steelyard: a graduated beam on the pillar with a sliding poise that you move until the beam balances. It is built in cast iron and steel plate, needs no electricity, works in damp places, and its heavy framework with more than 16 knife edges keeps it accurate in rough daily use.
