What I did this weekend

[dfmacliam]

You have out done yourself sir. Very nice, I, too like your kilt pin.

[Alan H]

DANG....I really like that kilt pin.

OK, so tonight I take a nail down to the train tracks......

[McMurdo]

nice work, the kilt pin is really cool.

That's very impressive work. I like the fringe on the apron. It makes the kilt look older and well-travelled.
Did you solder or glue the pin back onto the nail, or is it held on with a magnet?

[Aldisimo]

All of that in a weekend, huh? Thanks for making me feel so lazy ...

[jgcunningham]

Actually, the pin and sporran were finished previously. The pin has a brooch pin on the back held in place with superglue and the wire wrapped around the hilt and blade.

The fringe on the hem was just the unfinished edge of the material.

Thanks to everyone for the compliments.

[twodog]

Great thinking on the kilt pin. Looks like the nail was made just for that purpose.

[The Kilted Reverend]

Cheers on you.

Slainte,

LOVE the kilt pin...

Could you post close-up pics of the front and back of the kilt pin - so I can shamelessly plagiarize your idea?
