As someone who "builds physical things", I'm not sure I believe it's 100% made out of gold. I'd say some parts are hollow cast, but most likely the majority is gold leafed...But what do I know...
Um, your the one who wrote "made entirely out of gold" , aren't you TaQo?
Or if you are quoting someone else, you should have indicated that using quote marks and citing source.
A kilo of gold is quite small. Gold is heavy as shite. I think there is zero possibility this is made "entirely out of gold". Covered with gold sheeting/foil would make sense. Pretty sure the original was specified that way, NOT entirely of gold, but gold covered.

[1] And Bezaleel made the ark of shittim wood: two cubits and a half was the length of it, and a cubit and a half the breadth of it, and a cubit and a half the height of it:
[2] And he overlaid it with pure gold within and without, and made a crown of gold to it round about.
But to this day nobody knows just what "shittim wood," is. And as an interesting aside, Moses anointed the Priest's ear with blood.
6 POUNDS of gold ....

It says 6 pounds of gold. Wouldn't matter how the gold is applied, as long as the weight is 6 pounds
It matters to someone who makes things when they say:
Specs matter
