1" of standard electric tape
A couple weights are listed online. Nails sold by the pound have aproximations of the number of nails per pound.

Divide to find the weight of each nail in lbs and convert to oz by multiplying by 16.
If the nail types confuse you, the refrence page gives a description of each type of nail in the chart.

Don't feel bad if you have to follow the link to look. I didn't know what two of the types were. I only knew common and finish.

16P nail > .3256 OZ = 9.275 Grams
8P nail > .1509 OZ = 4.287

Glass Marble weight
Using a postal scale I determined that 6 glass marbles weigh 1 oz.
7,000 grains per pound
16 ÷
--------------------------
437.5 = grains per oz.
6 ÷
--------------------------
72.9 = grains per marble.
Using a dial caliper my marbles measure 0.626" diameter.
FWIW
