A Bathroom scale that can read 500 lbs.  No tough trick.  Buy two electronic

Great idea. Thanks Lloyd.

Fellows, it doesn't work that way, EACH scale will read the TOTAL load,  
but you could put a board across the two scales (one foot on each scale) 
and read each scale and add the total. This is just another example 
of springs in series vs parallel.

Opps!
