    Here's the pic of the new kilt.

    Hey Gang,

    I finally have time to post the pics of the new Irish National Kilt. I am sorry that the first pics are sideways.


    Front Shot.

    My New Buzz Kidder Sporran


    The Medallion on the flap


    The back and belt loops.


    The inside.

    I ordered this kilt knowing it was about 1/2 in to small but it fits great and it is night and day different from the 2 thrifty's I already own. The Buzz kider Sporran is beautiful, soft supple leather, with lots of room. I also love the magnetic closure.

    IMHO Jerry and Buzz make a great team.

    TKR

    That does look nice.

That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon

    Since the photos are hosted on photobucket you can flip them right side up quite easily.

    Just go to the photo in your photo bucket account, look above the pic at the 'edit' link and click that. One of the options now is rotate, you can do it 90 degrees in either direction and put your feet 'on the ground'.
    .. the kilt had concealed a blaster strapped to one thigh and a knife to the other. He was aware of the present gentle customs against personal weapons, but he felt naked without them. Such customs were nonsense anyhow, foolishment from old women - there was no such thing as "dangerous weapons," only dangerous people.

    Looks good but are those the basting stitches still in?
