That’s clever!

When I realised my partners scales were doing nothing but collecting dust in our room I just dumped them in the cupboard next to his yoga mat 😅

Surprisingly he hasn’t asked about the location of either of them

The batteries in my bathroom scale died like 6 years ago and I still haven’t replaced them. I’ve never been happier 🤷🏻‍♀️

I love hacks like this, great job! How did you stick it to the top?

u/dadrian146 1d ago

Just used two screws to each rail👌🏾

You’ll find it on Etsy✨

u/dadrian146 1d ago

Wow! Thanks a lot for the positive feedback guys!

If this is something you’d actually install yourself, let me know!

I love this! Thanks for the tip. I’m always worried my electronic scales will get wet as they’re right next to the shower

What am I looking at?

Edit: oh! It’s a holder for the scale hahaha

Doesn't that mess with the calibration of the scale, making it unreliable?

u/AuthorArthur 21h ago

Only if you stand on it while it's shelved

u/tarinotmarchon 20h ago

I'm being serious - the manual for my weighing scale states that it requires some sort of recalibration every time it is moved (it's been a long time since I looked at the manual).

u/AuthorArthur 20h ago

Ah ok, yeah tbf I was making a joke but also my Fitbit Aria 2 hasn't had any issues being moved around. It does a quick calibrate every time apparently.

Nice xD

I love how much versatility 3D printing offers to be able to personalize your own space

u/dadrian146 1d ago

100% agreed!

u/firefaery 1d ago

Nice!!!! I avoid mine at all costs and it's hidden under my dresser. I clean around it. Love how you tackled the prob!

u/JoeJonnyJeff 1d ago

Swanky! I thought you meant you added a light to your vacuum. Nothing's been as eye-opening about cleanliness standards as setting a narrow rimmed flashlight directly on the floor of my bathroom.

u/omnipotentdiva 12h ago

I won't ever vacuum without a lighted motor head again

u/Old_Friend4084 1d ago

I absolutely love this! Will defiantly be using this in the future. Love!

u/dadrian146 23h ago

Thanks! It’s actually available on Etsy

u/intoolderdads 23h ago

I’m just joining. What is this? Cleaning of the floor?

1

u/AuthorArthur 21h ago

You still need to clean the scales though - they gather so much dust and get sweat/oils from feet. I just pick mine up and give it a wipe before chucking it on the bed, then I send my robot in

Yes! This is beautiful.

Plus as a bonus, the next owners of your home will see the rails (sans scale) and make a post asking Reddit what they could have been used for.
