Just curious how much weight they add to the front of a WD. My 45 needs some weight hung out front.

I made my own w/o knowing those existed. I made a wood box the size of that platform, added a block of wood on the inside of each side, then poured 50# of melted lead in the box. Those inside blocks caused the lead to have a notch on each side. When cooled, I could stack them and use a nylon ratchet tie strap running in those notches. Each one is about an inch thick. I need about 500 to 700 pounds to counter balance big round hay bales. (Follow all health safety guides.)
