    Actually it would be nice if we kept a list of all known kilt makers period. The only way it would work though is if someone took on the project so that it stayed up to date, "Keeper of the Official Kiltmaker List" or some such title. This way we would have a way of combing out the ones who are no longer in business. Might be something for the moderators to talk about.

    Once upon a time there was such a thing here, but I think it disappeared when there started being sponsors of the site.

    Is this the one you were thinking of, Adam? If so its still there, just somewhat outdated.

    Gotta love the quote on their website:

    "KILT W/ MATCHING SPORRAN $130.00 BASE PRICE
    DETACHABLE POCKETS $ 30.00 EACH
    ONE INCH PLEATS $ 40.00 MORE

    FREAKIN OUT THE BOSS
    AT THE XMAS PARTY PRICELESS"



    CLEVER!

    No there used to be a feature where you could locate kilt makers/sellers by state.

    Really all you would need is a stickied post with a list, which could be edited to add or subtract when the need arises.

    The reason I specifically mentioned contemporary kilts is because it's a relatively new phenomenon, and their are a lot of businesses popping up to take advantage of the new market.

    But yes, having a list of all of them would be good.

    Honestly I don't think it would take much effort. it's not like it would change on a daily basis.

    And I don't think it would be a problem for sponsors either, as having a name on a list is in no way comparable to having ads on every page, and possibly more detailed information on the list.

    You could do that but I think you would be better off with a database that can be searched by several criteria.
