Jul 14, 2021 at 13:53 comment added KevInSol I tried your uni-direction idea and it seems to give very good results. So, going up I just stop, but going down I give it a half turn (0.35mm) back up. I'm happy to have a reading a little over in both directions. This is just a test jig to try out something, nothing to do with water, but thank you for exploring that possibility.

Jul 13, 2021 at 17:12 comment added KevInSol Thank you, I read your comments and was about to reply there. Yes, indeed if I remove the bearings the up/down is the same within a decimal point. I'll try your uni-direction idea tomorrow. I believe your explanation re the bearings adding forces. If I understand correctly, when going down, it actually pushes up giving a lower then actual weight?
