Is there an "average" thickness. One of mine weighed in 4% heavy and had 10" walls. The other was 17% heavy with 12" walls.

The blossom is normally the thinnest. The Shoulders the thickest.

Marc and I just opened up our 370" est weight 1105 Gantner fruit. Actual weight 1392.5 at 26% heavy. It was so small in the inside it was almost funny to look at..I got some pics I could share any one want to see it. walls were a consistent 12" everywhere.typical I believe for something that % over the chart. we cut it in 4 pieces basically and rolled it down a large creek embankment.It was amazing as it flew down taking out small trees and such along the way. LOL
