My 10,000 # load cell is a pressure gage on a cylinder like this:

I had to go to YouTube to see what this does. Is there much call for
moving 10-ton objects 11 mm?


It's like a crowbar for cramped spaces. The kit it would go with is
for straightening vehicle crash damage.

However, I can see the use to measure the
load exerted. Do you have a special pressure gauge filled with liquid?


I do, and you can too:
