Haha good one! I mean the Webley's themselves are solid steel and feel heavier than they actually are so I estimate it will probably weigh around 10lb. I will weigh it when it is complete though for sure.

I think mine checks in at around 12lbs. Curious to see where yours sits Cam!

EDIT: Threw her on the kitchen scale and she weighs 8lbs 13oz
12’s a different toy

Went ahead and drilled out the small holes for the mate-n-lok connectors and then dyed them black.

 

[BudaFett]

Cameron,
can you walk me through the dye proces? It would be helpful if you could pitch at the level of a witless infant.

[Fettastic]

I'll try and remember the process.
