Parts I used for the test stand:

Arduino Uno R3: amzn.to/2QhskRv

50Kg Load cell: amzn.to/2DVYHxo

HX711 Board: amzn.to/2lg2r5L

LCD Keypad Shield: amzn.to/2E9q6fN

5V Relay: amzn.to/2SEgqhn

In addition you will also need some jumper wires, and a 10+ foot USB 2.0 Cable - A-Male to B-Male to log the data to your laptop.
