What pressure to put on the razor when honing.

[DMA]

Hi Guys,
I'm a keen honing novice and am getting reasonable results now, after watching the videos by Lynn and Glen.
One of the areas that I need help with is the amount of pressure needed for each stage of honing.
I had an idea that may help with this area, if the honemeisters on here could maybe define pressure a little more clearly by putting the stone on kitchen scales and then zeroing them, followed by a blade being put on the stone with the correct pressure and then simply reading the weight shown.
I know this will be a ball park figure, but it would allow us apprentices to get some idea of the correct pressure to apply, if we did the same thing with scales and then we could both see the correct pressure and learn to feel it.
This may sound nuts to you guys but it would help in the learning curve.
What do you think?
