Just trying to figure the weight of my new smelting pot when full of lead, so I'll know if the burner will support that much Wt.

I set my pot down on a bathroom scale. It's not as accurate and a triple beam scale but it's close enough.

I calculate it 6.6 ounces per cubic inch.

Pi r squared X H X 6.5 / 16 = pounds in your pot when full
