Hey, I am enjoying how Skyrim is playing out- I absolutely love this game. This is my first time posting on these forums, and I'm not exactly sure if I'm in the right section to post this.

However, I found when going to a tanning to craft leather, using deer hide or any other hide for that matter, and I find that I've gained weight (Usually 1 or 2 pounds).

Is there a reasonable explanation for this? I'm just curious because of the scientific law of 'matter can neither be created or destroyed'.

Thanks,
