Mike, the scale is functional and fairly accurate ... But since it is going to be used as a static piece I did not fill the dash pot with oil. What the Dash Pot does is that it acts like a shock absorber when the beam moves up and down .. If it leaks or gets spilled it makes quite a mess plus it would be detrimental to the paint ... <'TK><
