[ale] Where can I get a Load Cell that will plug into a Raspberry Pi

[Michael Potter]

Your Arduino tip was good.  Google is a bit more friendly adding Arduino as

I am going to experiment with adding a load cell on exercise equipment to
measure and record the load.

I don't know exactly what I will do, but I am in the mood to tinker a bit
and see what comes of it.
