4 x 1/4 ton = 1 ton; 1500 lb completed assembly << 1 ton. 300lbs or so is a non-trivial three man lift, and that would fit with the reported total weight, though I will certainly accept that there might be traditional exaggeration about the main rod weights. :) -- Graydon, who admits to being a total nitpicker about things like this -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
