Is it possible to add a decimal for the reference weights for pieces (or at least optional for very small pieces like the 1x1 round tiles (id 98138). In the catalogue there is a 0.11g but I assume it is something just rounded up to 0.11g (not sure the correct number. Background id that I thought that checking a delivery (or simply counting stock of a higher number) is much more efficient by checking the weight. Then I checked my last order which just arrived of supposed 3100 pieces but the overall weight was 320g. So either the weight is more like 0.10322g (then als 0.11g would be rounded wrong) or I received significantly less items. So I guess I will need to manually count quiet some to have a good sample estimation myself Or does anyone know out there how much 1000 or 10'000 of these should weight?

[...] Weight depends on mould (unrecognized variants) and colour. The catalogue only registers the heaviest. (2 months ago, Mar 16, 2024, to Catalog)

[...] My scale only goes to 2 decimal places. I expect this is true for most people here. I have some at work that are much more precise, but that takes frequent calibration [...] (2 months ago, Mar 17, 2024, to Catalog)
