I would say it is at least 250 lbs. It has 120lbs of quickret sand topper on it. I originally thought it would be to fragile to be transported, but it is pretty solid. It was a good learning expereince, since the simpliest things under the wire/burlap make for the best features in the end product. I crawled on it today and the sand topper is great for tracktion. |

Way to step up and get something done. Looks good. Need to cut some holes in the side of it for some handles.

It is 4' x 6'. It took 2 1/4 bags of Quickrete sand topper mix. The new 1/24th Losi make this not so small anymore. |

| The sand topper comes in 60 lbs bags. It is half portland and half sand already mixed in the bag. Lowes has it for less than $6 a bag. If you have a pallet and some wood (fire wood, landscape timber, etc.) then all you need is the wire $10.00 and burlap $ 10.00, both of which I got at Lowes.
