Thread: Lee scales missing dish

Just bought these scales at the gun show for next to nothing.
I thought it looked like everything was there, but the dish appears different and has no hook, is there anywhere I can find a replacement?

Make a wee hook and try it.with luck there is enough adjustment on that brass wheel to make it work.

I was thinking of doing that with a piece of brazing rod and epoxy it to the dish. If anything I might need to add weight to it so I can zero it. The factory dish is stainless, not plastic.

Mine is alloy...so try your rod. Maybe get away with drilling holes in one of the tabs,like original. If it's too light.use longer bit of wire as a cradle for the pan..

Yes I think that will work, I wonder what scales this pan originally belonged to? Looks like its mistakenly been switched at some point
I might even be able to 3D print something that will work.

I think what you have may be a generic aftermarket one. There have been examples of different shapes styles etc available ex TM/alliExpress etc over the years.
