CONTEST Guess the weight

CONTEST

Village Idiot
Every month or two, I force myself to do some pickin' of a different kind. You see, I have a LOT of breadboards (well relative to this one-idiot operation anyway), and if not culled would consume the entire lab, Oh my! So when the box is full, I have to empty it. I learned this discipline from my mother, who told me when the garbage pail got full, I was to empty it. Absolute genius!

Here's the box again (I posted it elsewhere) 👇

Now about the pickin'
I pick only components, no wire no breadboards, no pots (trimmers are welcome, but only if they behave themselves)...

Here's this round's harvest; 👇

Closest guess to the actual net weight (minus box) wins a $100 PedalPCB gift code...and rumor has it some new stock is forthcoming :love:

Don't weight, guess a wait! Guessing ends Noon Sat Jul 30 ET.

Thanks for reading! Is my handwriting legible?
 
I recorded the measurement in grams, but conversions are everyday life in the US as we always know better. :rolleyes:

Anyhow, @Diynot , I won’t say who…asked if I’d give the dimensions. I think giving ALL of them would take away some of the challenge, so how about 1 dimension….now let’s take a look at the possibles;

L & W=Well, this should be somewhat simple to estimate, considering a working knowledge of package sizes (the components, not mine)

D? Now there’s the missing variable eh? Okay…approximately 45mm @ center.
 
Are we just estimating the mass of the components, or are we also accounting for the sizeable weight upon your conscience for potentially letting one or two 5¢ static-sensitive devices meet their fate in there?

For context: this is what I imagine every time I hear about a chip that gets the static-pop of doom
