: Thanks Bill...

Hi again Tom,

Just did a little test, my scale isn't accurate enough for really precise weights that low, but on my current project the skin is very close to 10 ounces per square yard.

Had two long narrow pieces of the finished fabric that had to be cut out of the cat to lower the seat, enough to get enough pieces to make up a square foot of the fabric, but my scale only goes to 1/10 of an ounce. This stuff's pretty light, would really need to weigh to 1/100 of an ounce to be accurate. Still close enough to get an idea.

Bill H.
