You don't, but if you could, could you always guarantee that it would weigh exactly the same every time?

And if it did happen to weigh the same every time, then you just remember what it is in your head and just subtract it yourself from the overall weight.

In reality, it just takes a few seconds to weigh your sling and tare it.

Agree with Zack on this one, have weighed my weigh sling several times and get differing weights depending on how much water its retaining (soaked in to the mesh) at the time.
Its varied between 1lb 4oz and 1lb 10oz.
Much better to use the tare function each time to be accurate.

second Zack here.

always tare it every time. the amount of water soaked in will never be the same one session to the next.

Before you turn on your scales put your sling on and turn the scales on, or you can turn your scales on and press Tare and that will zero everything.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
