  • Hello Dear, According to me, Depending on the weight of the object, you need a piece of string or cable. Hang the object, using the string/cable. The direction of the string/cable will always point to the centre of mass. Repeat this 3 or 4 times, from different angles to triangulate the centre of mass in 3 dimensions.
