I built one a long time ago for a Massey 175. I forget the measurements, it calculated out to about 1000 pounds as straight concrete, but I added a lot of old chains and such so it was probably closer to 1200. Be sure to cast some sort of draw bar into it, you will always want to pull something or more likely tow it with chain. If you use a 55 gallon drum, leave an empty space at the top, makes a real good place to carry chains, tools, bits and pieces. Punch a couple of holes in the side though, or it will fill up with water and freeze everything in until spring.
