    I am the one making the kilt, and I believe i put belt loops for a 3 or 3.5 belt. it looks totally awesome and i'm planning to put up pics once it's done as i've had lots of helpful hints from people on this forum.

    he wanted a sporran too, but of course doesn't have the money so i did some research and made up my own pattern and decided to have a go and it's turning out really awesome too, i think.

    he has an eye on this celtic tree of life belt buckle and it's supposed to fit 2.75 or 3" belt so if he wants that he'll have to have a max of 3.

    thanks all for the advice

    Since you said you were making a sporran I thought you might be interested in this thread. http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/s...porran+pattern

    It has a link to a pattern and a pic of one that one of the members here made..

    For a quick belt for very little money, you can also go to Lowe's, Home Depot, etc. and get a tool belt for $10-$30 in varying shades of brown. That's what I did for my two UKs and it looks pretty sharp, especially with the Workman.

    I actually slathered some shoe polish on it as well and let it dry. Wiped it down real hard to remove some of the excess, and voila! Instant casual kilt belt.
