    Do you think it could work for moths? Just imagine what your family would say to seeing your kilt in the freezer.
    A deep freeze maybe, but what if you forget it's there....

    My grandma has stuff in her deepfreeze from when I was a kid. They never open it up, but I hear there are cakes in there from birthdays long past.

    I would imagine donning a frozen kilt and going 'regimental' would prove a 'little' uncomfortable.

    Being from the 60's era that looks to me like a seed hole.

    When I get a little hole like that I just darn it with matching thread.

    When we moved house in October 2007 we left behind a chest freezer we'd had for more than 30 years. In cleaning it out I found a tie bar I'd lost in 2003. Appareently it had fallen off my shirt and vanished between packages of food.

    It mounts a very attractive opal that I brought back from Australia. I wonder if I can get that opal remounted as a kilt pin?

    I bet they can. I used to know their diamond cutter, for fun/practice, he cuts marbles (the clear ones with the 'ribbon' and solid color) into settings for rings. They can even custom cast.
