I know some of you wonderful ladies use these for fractional weights and talked about them in the discussion thread, but I can't find the discussion and I want to look into them. Can someone tell me which ones to look for and/or if it was worth it? Thanks so much!

    I got 6 for less than $24

    ETA: definitely worth it

    I have 6 of the zinc-coated 2-inch Fastenal washers and they work wonderfully. :smile:

    Yep I felt freakishly goofy toting my washers home from the store. But they work just dandy.

    How much do you "count" each washer as weighing?

    2 of them are right at 1.25 lbs I figure by the time I add my spring clip cinchy things to keep plate on the bar it comes out to that. I weighed mine with my food scale.
