Weight of a SS BP

***Fiona*** · July 10th, 2007, 09:37 AM

I have just taken delivery of a Halycon 3mm SS bp and harness, it seems quite a bit lighter than my Agir 3mm one.

Does anyone know the weight of the Halcyon ones as to be honest mine doesn't seem like a 3mm plate either.

Yes it is stainless, it's shiney

Don't suppose you've got some fishing scales?

Anyway, why did you switch from one 3mm SS plate to another?

I had one, but it's stopped working so have ordered another one. Might be here today, but interested how heavy another one is to compare.

I must be missing somthing here..............

How the F*** can a back plate stop working? It's a lump of solid metal with no moving parts or test date on it! Your going to tell me next that the V wiegth has an expiry date on it as well!

That would be the scales that have stopped working I expect

You would be correct the scales aren't working not the big lump of metal I am trying to weigh

Sorry Nick, quite right I have other things on my mind - typo should read 3mm - but your knew that

Sigh
