Calculating weights of folders and paper
Forum rules
Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,
Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.
All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page
Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

This is more of a guess:
1) By definition 2000 letter-size sheets of 20 lb paper weigh 20 lbs
2) A 5000 sheet box would weigh 50 lbs, and it's about the same size as a file drawer (files fit in it).
So I am guess contents are about 60 lbs per drawer, plus the cabinent weight.
