Pelt board with expansion means

A pelt board is disclosed for stretching and drying of tubular pelts, the pelt board having a tip end (13) from which the pelt is drawn onto the pelt board and a foot end (11), the pelt board comprising two broad elongated side surfaces (14, 15), wherein the pelt board comprises expansion means (3, 6) defining a narrow elongated side surface extending between side edges (4, 5, 7, 8) of the two broad elongated side surfaces (14, 15), and activation means (9) for selectively moving the expansion means (3, 6) to an expanded position and locking the expansion means (3, 6) in the expanded position, or unlocking the expansion means (3, 6) so that the expansion means (3, 6) are movable to a non-expanded position in which the outer crosssectional circumference of the pelt board is reduced as compared to the expanded position.
