I needed something to wear when landscaping... The X-kilt fit the bill
This post summarizes the entire spirit of the X-Kilt. No lamentations on whether or not he has the perfect fabric. No stressing out about whether the pleats need to be 3/32 of an inch narrower to create the perfect fit. The man got the directions, did what he needed to do, learned some stuff, added a strap here and a buckle there and some hooks...whatever the heck he wanted because it's HIS kilt, and made himself a flippin' kilt to got get dirty and sweaty in. Guid on ye.
Cheers to the kilt-maker, the pattern-maker, and the spirit of the X-kilt that get's 'er done

Nicely done! Wish I had the skills to do that. You realize the picture only counts if you're wearing it, right?
Well, I owe a big thank-you to Alan for his great X-Kilt manual. If I could make one, anyone can. Just go for it lads.
Nice kilt!
That looks good. Should be able to do a lot of landscaping in that kilt. Mike
You can never go wrong with an X-Kilt

Way cool! I have absolutely no skills to make a X-Kilt no matter how much I want to.

Can you use a circular saw to cut one foot of length off a 4-foot piece of 2 x 4 lumber? Can you use a tape measure to measure the distance between two points on the floor? Can you solve this math problem? 22 - 8 = ???? Can you read this post? Can you get in the car, drive to a store, and buy thread and cloth? If you can do those things, you have the skill set to make an X-Kilt.
