A good place to start is to have the hammer weight graduated making a smooth
line when plotted on a graph. This is accomplished with a gram scale.
Dave Stanwood has the info on this.

Weighing the Strike Weight of the shanks is helpful also, you'd be
surprised to
discover as much as 7 different weights within a set ranging from 1.5gr to
2.1gr.
