I would not get that scale... only measures down to single grams. You want one that goes down to a hundredth of a gram (0.01).

At least Amazon is awesome about returning and refunds. I don't have to worry if it doesn't work out.

I'm telling you, don't get it. It's the same accuracy as the scale you got already.
The AWS LB-501 is the scale people in the "mixing by weight" thread are talking about... it weighs down to 0.01 grams.

Yup that's the one. Comes with calibration weights and with a common ac adapter plugged in (not incl) will never turn off or you can use batteries. Read the reviews. Most are diying eliquids. The screen shutting off in 10 or 30 seconds is frustrating. Not a deal breaker but a pita. All scales need periodic calibrating and the fact this comes with what the manufacture uses is nice. Assures accuracy more than most.
Beat me to the punch with the link. I'm lucky to get out of amazon without a 4hr adventure trip and a $100 poorer.

So...is the 2nd scale(the one from eBay) the poster in that thread mentioned a better scale than the one from Amazon?
I've been interested in mixing by weight for quite awhile since I generally mix 1000 to 1200 mls at a time so I always have some of my favorites steeping.

Been using this to mix my juices for a couple years. Works for me.
I do like that it includes weights for calibration. Seems like that's important to do periodically.

I just went back and skimmed quickly again... the OP is using the LB-501 scale from Amazon and others claim it worked good. However, I saw a little further down that the OP says the SF-400D scale from eBay is better.
I'm going to poke through reviews some more and see if I can make some sense of which one to buy.

When I wake up in the morning and find my GF laying next to me...I know it's because she really wants to be there...and NOT because she promised 37 years ago to stick with me until I or, of course, she dies...
..
The one from eBay is the one I wound up getting. It was only a little more, free shipping and I could use PP so I went with it. It won't be here until next week and I have to do a little mixing this weekend so I'll have to do it the old fashioned way.
Does anyone have any tips for getting screws unstuck?
Should I try adding e juice or the freezer?

Heat, cold, impact, drill press, easy out. Depends on what's stuck and how it is stuck.
This one, the AWS LB-501?

This is the scale I have and it works great. Does everything it needs to for mixing eliquids. I don't use mine often cause I prefer volume mixing but that doesn't mean its the scales fault. Price is right too. And it comes with a calibration weight.
Take a look at this... some just recently listed. Don't know anything about them other than they aren't cloudbro attys.

This screw is stuck

Err, there are two screws there. I'll assume it's the one screwed down that you can't unscrew? The Philips head looks intact, so you might try a touch of WD40, let it settle in for a while, and see if that unbinds it (but if it works obviously wash really well before returning it to service).
Your assumption is correct! I try to never fully unscrew such small screws to avoid the carpet jungle! I'll try the wd-40, thanks!

I'm about to throw the Origen out the window, but thought I'd check here first for assistance. I took the silver pin out, since I'm not using it for squonking. I am unable to get the brass pin in after over 20 attempts. I know that parts aren't optional, but can I forgo using one or both of these parts? I feel it will go in without them. Second question: if I put the silver screw back in can it work for regular vaping?

You could try putting it in the freezer for a few hours, tap on it lightly with a small hammer or wrench, and maybe some penetrating oil. Make sure you are using the proper size philips screwdriver that is in perfect shape so you can get the most torque on it. If you take the positive post out and remove insulators, you could even try heating it a little (carefully!). If that doesn't work, it will probably have to be drilled out.
Or, just replace the positive post and be on your way.
ETA: You might be able to grip the screw head securely enough with a good pair of pliers to break it free. Linesmans would work nicely.
