Weight of fabric vs. style of pleat

[sydnie7]

Check.

Lightweight Black Watch = "trad" pleat to stripe, ETA prior to next clan dinner in March '09

Drag the fellow out to look at camo fabric for an X-Kilt.

Keep an eye out for 4 yds of heavy for a trad box-pleat.

Keep an eye out for jackets suitable for conversion.

Eat, sleep, drink? Highly over-rated!

Try these folks on eBay. They have really really nice tartan at a good price, and many of the tartans are unusual. But they are selling out fast. Just look carefully to make sure you are buying the weight tartan that you want, and be sure to click "see all items in the store" so that you don't miss any of the tartans:

Alas, my list is long but my accounts are short. I'm trying to keep to a discipline re: not purchasing materials for more than one project in advance. . . but this site is a bad influence! Thanks for the link, though.
