Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.

Sadly, I still have that exact scale in my tackle box. It no longer works.
I need to upgrade.

Well mine is still in operating condition but the tape measure has since faded and needs to be oiled downed and cleaned up. It makes for a good conversation for sure. I need to continue to dig around and there is no telling what else i may find around my parents home. lol
