Time after time, we all think: "How much does this material weigh?" I was wondering about that too, and made a beam scale to find out! Comparing every basic material's weight to the weight of 1 Wood grid square, I came up with this table of weights: Table of Material Weights(the big font means it's something special) Wood = 1 (it is described as the "basic building material" so I'm putting it as a base weight) Metal = 2 Cardboard = 0.1 (VERY LIGHT) Polystyrene = 0.1 Sponge = 0.2 Rubber = 1 Glass = 1 Pink Floaty = 0 (weightless) Peach Floaty= -0.1 Dissolve = 0.15 (*) Stone = 2 Fire = always 1, no matter which material it's made from Electric = electrified material's weight Horrible Gas = weightless unless stuck to something, then it's 0.1 (**) Material Changed Gas = look above Sackboy = 1.1 Thin Materials are 2 times lighter than Medium materials. Fat Materials are 2 times heavier than Medium materials. So, there you have it! Enjoy, and if you find any mistakes feel free to post! Note: (*)When I first measured this, I thought I was crazy, or my scales were broken. The problem was that the scales were not perfectly straight both when I compared the weights of Dissolve and Cardboard, and Dissolve and Sponge. However, when I put off all of the load, the scales were perfectly balanced. So that means I'm crazy!!! LOL No, really, that has really bothered me, and I put two Dissolves on one side and 1 Cardboard and 1 Sponge on the other side, and the scales were perfectly balanced. Some math (2x=0.2+0.1, 2x=0.3, x=0.15) proves that the weight of Dissolve is 0.15 of the weight of Wood. (**)Call me stupid, crazy, mad, lunatic or heretic, but it's true!

Wow cool! i always wonder what the weights of materials, This will come in handy and yes you are crazy for weighing the materials You will fit in with the rest of us

I had an idea of making a scale to measure materials for months now, but never built it. (too busy) Thanks for this.

Cory, I don't mean this mean, but I kind of find it kind of funny every post about something i either see a post by you claiming it or that you had the idea and never got around to it. Thanks for the scale by the way!

Thanks for the scale by the way! Yeah, I guess it seems that way, but I have a ton of ideas flowing through my brain.(And I mean a TON!)

Yeah, I guess it seems that way, but I have a ton of ideas flowing through my brain.(And I mean a TON!) It's true. That's why all of my levels are unoriginal because cory is always thinking of it before I can. Let me tell you, my new level coming soon, cory will already know how it'll be like because he already thought of it before. The crazy part is that I don't know what I'm building yet myself as well. In conclusion, don't underestimate him. XP
