Our bathroom has very little extra floor space so the scale has been leaning up against the wall.

Taking adavtage of extra wall space behind the door to safely store the scale.

I constructed it like a very short drawer. Cherry sides with 3/16" plywood bottom.

      That’s what I thought it was before I read the description.

    Damn, this is a good idea! I used to lean mine against the wall but one day it slipped and ended up shattering (was 99% glass, whoops). Since then I’ve got one flat on the floor but it’s a little in the way, so something like this would be great!

      Our toddler messing with this glass scale was the inspiration! I bet an off the shelf letter holder would work.

    Beautiful and I like those joints. May I ask how you attached the bottom to it? And is everything just glued?

      There’s a groove on the insides of the walls that the plywood fits into.

      Plain wood glue for the corners but the bottom is not glued in order to let the sides move with humidity changes.
