Hey guys I am having trouble with the scale puzzle in the library. I have no idea how to solve it I keep just moving the weights around trying to make everything even. I am on the senior level can someone give me a hint?

Hi First, have you picked up all the weights? If so, then have a look at the graph in the drawer in order to determine where to place the weights. From the WT Left pan:Iron, silver and mahogany Middle pan:Brass, copper and ironwood Right pan:Lead, zinc and oak
Not admitting defeat... is the beginning of the solution. But sometimes asking for help is not a bad idea! ==================================

Thanks RAL for answering me. I do have all the weights and I have looked at the paper in the drawer but all it says is what each weight is. It does not tell you how to place the weights. I am really trying to do this puzzle without using walk through so any hints will help.

Thanks Rushes I will look in the desk drawer again but I do not see any paper with numbers on it the only paper I see is the one that says what each weight is.

Doesn't that same paper have a number next to each symbol which tells you its weight?

No there is no numbers at all. Maybe because I am doing senior level the weights are no visible. Thanks any way Rushes looks like I will have to either guess the weights or use the walkthrough.
