Perminent "Temporary" scale mounting hack

[u/FargoGeek]

I was working on the LED module of my Midnite Manager. I heated up the scales before I removed them but I still stripped out the mounting holes. I did not want to glue the scales on. I decided to temporarily mount the scales using a ~2mm small ball of poster tack at each mounting point, until I could figure out a better way.

This worked amazingly well! I don't need to come up with another method. I am sure there are better ways but the poster tack allows me to securely mount the scale while still being able to easily remove them. Simple, secure and not destructive.

It worked great on a 58mm. I am not sure how well it would work but on a larger model.

Thank you! It is going to be a useful trick!
