I have a Tempest that I'd like to build a box for, and looking at Adire's plans for vented boxes, I've chosen the Adire Alignment Design, its 214L, and 22x22x33.5", also with internal braces. My question is how much is this cabinet going to weigh, using 3/4 MDF? Anyone know the weight of 1 cubic inch of MDF? that'd help me out a lot.

I built the EBS ported tempest from Adire's plans, and it must weigh 200lbs or so. It was made out of 3/4" baltic birch plywood and covered in 1/4" baltic birch plywood. It is a beast. I am dreading moving.
