OK, this is the "first edition". It doesn't have a lot of pictures, in fact now that I think of it, you'll need the pleating diagram as well, so I'll upload that ASAP. At least in one point I refer to the pleating diagram being "Appendix I" and obviously that's not the case.

Here it is, you can view it and print it from your browser...

note; 10/22/09... that link does not work, that link does not work!! Look at the link, above that is post FOUR TIMES. That link works.

I still want to write the appendix on making cargo pockets, and also an appendix on making an X-Skirt for the ladies. Still, the basics are there.

It might need some spell-checking! I ran out of patience after spell checking about 14 pages, and this manual is 24 pages long! It's taken me about 10-12 hours to write this and edit it and change it as I made the first three X-Kilts.

OK, download and read it over. Let me know what you think. "The Second Edition" will have the cargo pockets in it, and will have more pictures as well, but you can get started if you want to.

ANYBODY THAT MAKES AN X-KILT IS HEREBY OBLIGED TO POST PICTURES OF THE FINAL PRODUCT!!! **laughing**
