Cleared a thousand feet of hoistway cable today and the weight number on the scale was a real shock.
It was 2,300 pounds of old steel (which is a lot more than I guessed, you know, just looking at the spool), so now I'm curious if anyone has a good rule of thumb for eyeballing cable weight before you have to move it.

My last spool was way heavier than it looked too, man.

That thing was like 50 pounds.
