That's why I keep a roll of 20 AWG nichrome on hand. Spool off 9.7195853528209 feet and it'll be bang on.

So 1 inch of your wire would weigh ~0.0987 grams, so to measure down to 8.6350242338508 inches of wire your scale would need to weigh down to ~0.00000000000007 grams. Which is the weight of about a dozen atoms or so.

Yeah which is why you use a Kibble balance. Are you sure you're cut out for this kind of work?

I'm not a scientist, I'm just in IT haha

I figured there was a way to measure that small of weight but I didn't know!

Its akin to having an electon microscope in your kitchen

We move onto the next issue. How to precisely measure the length of the wire?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

Eyeball it. Gotta squint right tho.

If you trust the gauging, you weigh it.

With a 6 digit voltmeter

With an ohm meter?
