Hardin County, Iowa
Well, I'll be the odd man out. I come up with about 510 pounds for the main part, not including the cone, which would be about a 1/4 ton. That is assuming the 12 foot is circumference and not diameter. I divided 12 by 3.14 to get diameter and divided that by 2 to get radius and then used 3.14 x radius squared x height of 3.5 feet to arrive at 12.77 cubic feet. Using Crete's value of 40 pounds per cubic foot, multiply 40 by 12.77 and arrive at 510.8 pounds which is close to 1/4 ton. Paul
