Wonder what that might weigh

  1. Not sure of its weight, but I'm certain it won't float.

  2. 1800 lbs
    fortunately it breaks down
    It sits on about 16 sf of floor, so 2x12 joists at 12" o/c will be fine, with no deflection

  3. They’re definitely heavy. Straps, ramps and muscle for moving. Works of art - I know a guy that refurbishes and sells them locally here in NH:

  4. Pish! It comes in 6 major segments that bolt together. Individually can be handled and erected in place, fully assembled somewhere between 400 and 500 lbs. And after a century plus of use, good luck taking it apart ;-)

  7. House grew up in had a double oven version, when we were little kids we got a bath in a galvy washtub set up on bricks on top of our stove so we stayed warm. Never forget how nice it was.
