Abstract
A relatively lightweight base assembly for a dynamic wheel balancing machine is stabilized by filling a pliant plastic bag carried by the base assembly with a sufficient volume of pourable material, such as water, to provide a free form body of ballast. Also, a plurality of bags of a type to receive pourable sand can be filled with sand, as desired, for supplying ballast and for damping machine movements.
