I have been given some saline I.V. Bags 500ml are they any good for ballast bags? And if so how do I attach my fuel tubing?

They tend to be very strong, so provided the volume si adequate they should prove excellent for use.
You can join the tube i the bag to tubing on your pump etc. with a simple brass or copper joining tube.

Scales won't help much when you are working with wood. Most wood is much less dense than water, so if you use weight I would roughly double the amount of water you will need to pump onboard to submerge.
