First of all, I had to assume what his exoskeleton is made of and I think it's silica (or quartz, SiO2). I think this for 2 reasons:

Bill turns to stone when he dies, so that means that his physical form had to be made of stone at least partially and

He likes to eat glass and glass is made of SiO2, so I think he needs to do that to keep his exoskeleton/shell healthy, like snails eat calcium.

So, then I went to see how much animals with SiO2 skeleton weigh. Those animals are glass sponges from class Hexactinellida, the largest of which contain up to 50kg of silica. These sponges are cylindrical with large opening on top, so I took the dimensions of the largest sponges (1.4m wide and 2m tall) and calculated their surface area which was 23.73 square meters.

Then, I calculated Bill's surface area. Bill is an equilateral triangle (because Axolotl said that all his angles are 60 degrees), but he also has some depth, so he's actually a very thin pyramid. From the comic it looks to me that his sides measure about 30cm (0.3m) and for the sake of easier calculations, let's say that he's 1cm (0.01m) thick. After a lot of calculations, I came to the conclusion that his surface area is 0.165 square meters.

So, if a sponge of surface area 23.73 square meters has 50kg of silica, Bill with his 0.165 would have 0.35kg of silica.

But that's just silica. Bill also has muscles and other components. I don't think that he has bones, so I'm going to calculate his volume (that's 0.0026 cubic meters of triangle + a little bit that make his arms, legs and hat, which is also a part of him) and fill it with muscle tissue. Muscle density is 1.06kg/1 cubic meter, so Bill's 0.0026 cubic meters would have 0.0028kg of muscle.

So in total, Bill would weigh 0.35kg +0.0028kg= 0.3528kg, so a little bit over 350 grams. In Burgerland measures that's 0.77 pounds.

Now that's if his exoskeleton is JUST silica. If it has more, like sponges do, than it could weigh up to 4.17kg! (because the whole sponge weighs 600kg).

In conclusion, Bill could be as light as 350 grams (0.77lbs) or as heavy as 4.5kg (10lbs) if we calculate just muscle. I am not adding fat or any other tissue because HOW THE FUCK CAN ANYBODY EXPLAIN FAT DISTRIBUTION OF A TRIANGLE!?
