    I shopped around then bought my scales from Allendale

    http://www.allendale-hosting.co.uk/

    I made the mistake of buying a vertical mount scale for the Z axis, found you can't turn the display on without resetting the whole thing, I thought this might turn out to be a pain when testing so I dumped it.

    Allendale also do pretty anodized aluminium covers for scales. Means you can't see the display but does make them drip proof. The end mounts for the scales are a bit naff in pressed steel, so I remade them in aluminium.

    OTOH they do work...
