Yup, this type of scale works really well for FRC. I used them on both back on 228 and now on 148. Here's a link to this type of scale (I'm not sure if it was this exact brand, but it's this same form factor):

BTW, do not let students/mentors weigh themselves on this, they are easy to break if you weigh over 150lbs.
