Weigh your stuff the old-fashioned way with this fully functional balance scale! Use it to compare objects directly, or print the optional weight cubes to get an actual reading in grams.
This was made as a fun design challenge. Use it as a desk toy to mess around with, as an educational tool to teach kids about weight and balance, or as an actual lightweight scale for everyday use.
Print instructions:
Slice and Print! No supports needed. Printed on default settings with PLA. Keep the orientation, the scale is printed upside down!
The model has supports included. It does use some pretty long bridges, so make sure your printer can handle that.
The optional weight cubes need to be printed separately at 100% infill. Mine were a tad lighter (2%) than my slicer predicted, but it could just be my printer or filament. You can do a test print and adjust if you want to be exact. Adjust the scale of the models to fine tune the weight. Aim for 0.1 gram over to account for the nozzle wipe.
Print the 2gr cube twice and one of each of every weight cube to make every possible combination. The scale can handle more weight, but I found it a bit of a waste of filament to make larger cubes.
After print cleanup:
Remove the support feature from the middle column.
The horizontal beams are printed with small internal supports. You can break those by moving the scale mechanics with some force. Then smooth out the movement by moving the scale back and forth while applying some force in different directions (see below).
