I just plan on using my bathroom scale. My tongue weight should be around 150 pounds, which seems to be in the 'sweet spot" for a bathroom scale. I'll just prop up a 2x4 between the tongue and the scale to keep the trailer level and the hitch at the right spot and it should be within a couple pounds or so of the actual weight...accounting for the scale being off in the couple pound range. Any way...it should be close enough. I will eventually get the whole trailer weighed at a truck stop when completed, but until then and to get it there a good guess will be close enough.
