Bathroom scales fix , it’s like watching paint dry

Salter bathroom scales, what’s in side, how do they work.
Warning all wife’s
Don’t watch this video it’s like watching paint dry.

I learned something new today about the mechanical functions of a scale! That's a very easy fix! Even I can do that easily!

[@freebirdofreason1994]

This video seems very popular Jeremy, I left it on this channel for this reason. glad you watched it.

[@Avakai2]

Thanks so much for the close up, I accidentally broke mine and your close up of the inner mechanisms helped me put it back together in no time! Cheers!

[@freebirdofreason1994]

Brilliant, glad it helped 👍👌

[@johnbeemansaunders6567]

Nice one Pete, you can fix anything, thanks for fixing my chainsaw also. keep them coming.

[@freebirdofreason1994]

I hope you made Lin watch it she would find the inner workings of a set of scales very riveting. 🤪

[@brayton6683]

My scale dail indicator or needle doesn't move at all if I stand on the scale , it could be that the dail needle came loose from the gear that turns it or it could be something else ...
But great video now I know what to except if I open mine up .If can't fix it then I will just buy myself a new one

[@freebirdofreason1994]

I bet it’s the needle loose on the shaft, no half in looking.👍

[@susancoles7337]

Thanks so much., A great video.

[@freebirdofreason1994]

Glad you enjoyed it! thank you for saying.

[@AlCatrraz]

I just found a GOOD LOOKING SCALE that needs the very same treatment.... coincidence?
SALTER 916W looks in great condition... no dust or rust - but does not go to ZERO...
I took it apart... all the parts went flying in all directions... lol

[@freebirdofreason1994]

Oh dear , good luck with that then lol

[@oldschoolhawking8191]

I thought this video was fabulous. I would've
*CHUCKED* in the garbage can. But now, I would try to *fix* a broken divice, just for the challenge. Thx Pete!

[@freebirdofreason1994]

Thanks Mike, I like fixing things, I had loads of stuff I fix on this channel but now try to keep to hawking, I kept this because for some reason it’s my best viewing video, I find that strange, I guess there’s a need to fix these things.
Thanks for having a look.

[@Julian-xj6mh]

Thanks dude

[@freebirdofreason1994]

No problem

[@danduvall]

I bet I watched 10 of these bathroom scale videos and not one has a clear close-up of how to connect that little 2 pronged widget. Thank you

[@freebirdofreason1994]

I hope it helped in some way👍

[@linsaunders1807]

Did to manage to make them weigh less ...... 😁 well done Pete

[@freebirdofreason1994]

I had heavy socks on.

[@miked6335]

How long did it take to reattach the springs? That looks like it might be a real tough nut to crack.

[@freebirdofreason1994]

couple of minutes with pointed nose pliers. not to bad.👍

[@daleskidmore1685]

You always wanted something that would accelerate to 100 faster than a Ferrari......

[@freebirdofreason1994]

thanks mate I think this may be a late reply

[@starmodern7750]

How to calibrate Analog Weight scale ?

[@freebirdofreason1994]

thanks for watching.

[@FreestyleGGD]

The little peg/arm snapped off on mine. It’s only made of plastic 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@freebirdofreason1994]

Plastic one oh dear, more modern a guess the old ones may be better using metal. Like most things with age.

[@starmodern7750]

How to calibrate?

[@freebirdofreason1994]

not sure.

[@roystheboy]

There telling you lies

[@freebirdofreason1994]

Just what I thought

[@AlCatrraz]

ON A SCALE OF 1 TO 10......

[@freebirdofreason1994]

cheers
