Bucksnbears was the winner; guessing it correctly at 14.5 oz (411 grams). So now it is has been drying in my dry-room approximately 65F with a 2 gallon dehumidifier and fans. In these conditions my beaver pelts are dry enough to take off the boards in 3-4 days. This castor has been in there 5 days and is now dry enough to market. What is the weight now? Make your guesses in grams (28.35 grams to the ounce). Here is the pic from when it was fresh: My fear of moving stairs is escalating!
