Thanks for the information - I'll see if I can find the colour marks - then I can verify if my cheapo kitchen scales are grouping my conrods into the correct weight brackets.

I was indeed planning to grind some metal off to correct if necessary - but for that I need a better set of scales that can measure at least half a gram.
