    Hmmmm....grumble because I can't play....biggest hassle is living in the canyonlands where seamstresses are scarce...did find a lady to repair the UK seam that came unravelled, but that wasn't a tartan.

    Guess I'll have to go prowl the website and see whats left.

    Thanks for the offer Cousin Bill...you serious?.....

    Had always kinda figured when I finally went to the Leatherneck tartan I'd spring for a hand sewn...but can't hurt to have a knock around either...

    You guys...

    Guess I could buy one then poke around town and see if someone is willing to take on the task.

    Its a long way from 24" to 21 1/2"...but you only gotta cut once...and hey, maybe I could use the left over for flashes...

    I love it when a plan comes together.

    Still gonna wear my RAF tartan kilt in the next Veteran's Day parade. I'm resolved to that.

    Panache breathes a sigh of relief as he realizes he is not going to get stomped by a former Marine from the Canyonlands. Rubbing his hands together he starts to think of who to annoy next...:tongue:

    Seriously Ron,

    You've had the pleasure of trying most of X Mark's Kilt Makers and Vendors, it's about time you try a SWK. You know that Jerry has to offer a single length to keep the costs down to keep them affordable. And if you have to offer one size, it makes a heck of a lot of sense to offer the longest average size that can be hemmed down to fit pretty much everybody.

    I look forward to your review.

    Cheers
