No New Kilts for a While

Whats a stone? ??:

14 pounds = 1 stone


Units of weights
16 drams = 1 ounce
16 ounces = 1 pound
7 pounds = 1 clove
14 pounds = 1 stone
28 pounds = 1 tod
112 pounds = 1 hundredweight
364 pounds = 1 sack
2240 pounds = 1 ton
2 stones = 1 quarter
4 quarters = 1 hundredweight
20 hundredweight = 1 ton

So, to represent ones weight in stones, it must be a factor of 14?
John, 12.857 stone. :-)

You can do it :razz:
I went off the beer and just drank a lot of water sometimes W/ Scotch. Cut out the breads and pasta. Then I started swiming 3X a week. I went from 256# 18.28 stone to 215# 15.35 stone (I cheated over the holidays) I want to get to 200# 14.28 stone It is allways easer to make a kilt smaller than to streach it, alot easer than trying to make pants smaller. What do I know ask the real kilt makers here

Keep it going!!!
