"6 station milling machine" with total of 280 HP, not counting two
hydraulic power units.

What did you pay for alladat?

You can proly estimate the weight pretty well.
Steel weighs 480#/cu ft, ditto copper, brass (approx), or 60# per 6" cube.
You could proly visually estimate an avg "spatial density" of select
measurable volumes pretty well, and come up with a grand total, good to +/-
15%.

I imagine it is going to take quite some time disassembling alladat, on top
of the rigging itself.
