Do I detect a challenge here for someone to build a
Technic/RCX based weighing machine :)

Does anyone has measurements for
the mass of Mindstorms components (in grams)?
I am particularly interested in the mass of the
RCX brick (with batteries), the gearmotors, and the
motorcycle-style wheels/tires.    I am having a
remarkably hard time finding a suitable scale...

Depending on the relationship you have with your
local grocery or butcher shop, they have very accurate
scales that will measure to 1 gram = usually for free!

You can also find scales at candy stores in malls...

Hope this helps, Ralph
