Tongue Scale
Is it worth spending the money($135) on a Tongue scale or is it a one and done thing?

I've got a Sherline LM2000 and do use it at least once at the beginning of each season to confirm my average gross tongue weight.
I think my only mistake in buying it was choosing one with a 2000 lb scale ... since I'll never own any trailer with a gross tongue weight exceeding 1000 lbs I should have bought the LM1000. Yeah, I could retrofit a 1K scale but using it just once a season it's not important enough to justify the expense ... and it is more accurate than using a bathroom scale. :)
