    G0704 Headstock Weight?

    I want to add an gas spring to my G0704 Z-Axis.
    Does anybody know off hand what the headstock weight is? I could take it off and weight it but it's a pain in the back to do. Perhaps, someone might be able to add what force springs that they are using.

    It's just over 60lbs., I think. A 40lb. cylinder would do nicely.
