Really would like to know how long it takes to assemble and total weight?
The conservation effort and assembly took a total of two weeks. The Lens is comprised of more than a thousand glass prisms and weighs over a ton. More info about the light can be found here: http://www.capeannmuseum.org/events/lighthouse-days/
