of four.
There are also a lot of the bathroom-scale-conversion setups which are
pretty cheap.

Look for Longacre or intercomp.

Government surplus could be a source. When I needed some, I talked to my
buddy who worked at McC...... an Air Force base. He borrowed two digital
truck scales from the motor pool.
