So... whats the weight of that bad boy? Can't see if being over 50 lbs... i.e. you haven't added all that much ballast...?

It's about 135 lbs. I haven't got a chance to really test it out yet. I plan on using the box blade this weekend. I can't complain about the price. I paid $10 for a can of spray paint and the rest was free. If it isn't heavy enough, I'm pretty sure I can get a heavier piece.

If you measure the rail depth, and the base and head width, you should be able to match it with one of these charts, which will give you the weight per yard.
