Aye, that's a beauty Iolaus. You've got taste as well as skill and imagination.
Earlier on in my kiltedness I made one of those myself-out of a nylon dog's collar. ....Well I wanted to look butch, project a little attitude, you know? Gave it a short length of heavy chain on each end and really industrial strength clips. Wore it with a ladies kilt so I had both the yin and yang happening....
I guess my point is that the wearing 'O the kilt inspires many of us to creation and innovation in fashionably attiring ourselves. And I guess, like you, I'm a fashion forward type of guy. 8)
Chaio baby,
Vincent
I've kilt for less.

Well done that man....I got a comment on a braided strap I made once . The person asked me if the braiding rubs the kilt (Wool kilt) have you any input on that ?

I don't think the braiding itself is the problem. I made the strap out of natural hide strapping, so only one side of the leather is finished - the back side is rough. I do notice that when I pull the sporran around to the side, the belt doesn't exactly slide easily.
Giving the idea a little thought though... If you were to take two different belts made of the same leather - one braided and one not - the braided belt would have less surface area in contact with the kilt, so I would imagine it would rub less.
