Ok, so I had a "brain wave" today. Just polished off a 5kg tub of protein and thought to myself "hey, I should fill this bas***d with concrete and lift it etc". Failing that, i'll just fill it with stones and seal it up with a few rolls of tape.

Just out of intrest, how heavy would you guess a "standard" 5kg tub full of concrete might weigh?

5kg? Grin

But seriousley. maybe 20 -25kg. Depends on the volume of the tub though.

A heavier suggestion.
Get your garden bin and fill that f**ker up with cement. That will equal something sickly huge. 200kg+ easily.

I hope that was a joke goodwinm.

Tony: If it turned out pretty light I'd just use it for an odd OH implement, pretty much just bored at home with not much to do, i'm almost certain of this being a disaster anyway Grin .

It would be too light for anything, its a foolish idea.

My tub has a handle. A very flimsy handle, I might add.

Handle or not its stupid.

You'd be better of duck taping a couple of bags of sand together.
