True, this would not be taken into account. But depending on how the balance is designed (removable pan) you could then weigh the pan. At least I can on my balance (not a Radio Shack one). Add the mass of the pan to the mass of the upsidedown balance and you have the total mass.

Most modern balances will if the mass of the balance is within the working range of the balance. At least cheap ones probably will.
