How much does an MDF cabinet weigh?

Specifically, what is the approximate weight of an Ultimate Arcade II cabinet fully loaded with PC and monitor?


200 lbs?    600 lbs?  1,000,000 lbs?

I haven't built my cab yet so I am just guessing here. Based on the weight of MDF per sheet and the monitor, I would say between 350 and 400 pounds...depending on what size monitor you have.

I do noy know, however my machine is made out of plywood and is weighs 400lbs. I know this for sure as my first cab was shipped off to the UK.

Hope this helps.

I would say around 350 to 400.  I have a lcd monitor and a mostly decased pc so that drops a little wight but nothing all that noticable.  Also I dont have a back door so that drops a lot off.  I do know that sliding it across a tile floor is a pain in the ass though but I dont like wheels.

If there's bees in the trap I'm catching em
By the thorax and abdomen
And sanding the stingers down to a rough quill
Then I dip em in ink, and I scribble a bit
But if it they wriggle then I tickle em until they hold still
Lemme say it again
In my land of pretend
I use bees as a mf'n pen
