A white bathtub featuring inscribed black lines and figures marking litres, gallons, etc.
A small collection of variously sized and weighted rubber duckies are used to aid in volume and weight measurement/calculations of buoyancy non-neutral items.
Or just played with because... rubber duckies.

I suppose that combined with the use of a normal bathroom
scale this would allow easy calculation of one’s BMI for
those who are into that sort of thing. |

Quick, get out that instant Patent Kit... |

//suitable for both volume and weight measurement//
Volume, yes, but weight, no. A brick made of lead and one
of the same size made of aluminium will give the same
answer. |

// Volume, yes, but weight, no. // Yes to both, actually : |

that's where the rubber ducky(s) come in, to balance the object in case it's too light to get proper volume (by adding enough weight to barely sink it (though that can be accomplished by simply pushing it underwater)), or too heavy to get proper weight (by adding buoyancy to barely float it). |

Oddly enough, [FT], I do believe you're right. Have a bun on
me. |
|
| |
Is that a regular bun, or a buoyant rubber fake bun ? |
|
| |
It is merely a bun. An echt bun. A bun in and of itself. |
|
| |
It’s a bun of the type used to make sub sandwiches
obviously. |

[+] Maybe a waterproof sticker and some setup instructions for those of us whom can't replace our bath tubs on a scientific desire. |
