First off, that is a nice X-Kilt. Good choice of cam. Nice personal touches.

To add to Alan H's rant:

Mine first one turned out okay. The other five were better. Measure, mark, fold, pin, sew. Pretty simple. You don't even really have to pin it, I just do. Try modifying a suit jacket for kilt wear. It's pretty simple too.

Want a challenge? Try scraping by in high school PRE-algebra (low C), barely graduate high school, and then 15 years later decide you want to become an engineer. I taught myself algebra, trig, geometry and some calculus in about 9 months, with a little help from a friend and some used textbooks. Took the ACT and was placed in Calculus...I couldn't have told you what calculus was two years ago. Last semester I had the second highest final exam score in my CALC II class. Not bad for a dumb kid who struggled with simple fractions. My point is, the difficulty is usually in your own mind.

The only thing hard about most new things is just deciding that maybe you can do it.
