Skills/Crafts

It's certainly improved my leathercraft.
Extended my silversmithing into sand casting and better pin and buckle work.
My keyboard talents are definately better! thanks to xmarks.
oh, and social improvisation.I'm full of comebacks now.

Sewing mostly. With a machine. I've belted out 4 kilts now. Working on hand sewing another.

Been wanting to get ahold of some leather and try making my own sporrans. Making a pair (or more) of ghillie brogues would be enjoyable. Some flashes are in my future.

Getting some incite to making a sgian duhb would be cool.

Now that you mention it, starting a sgian dubh. Steel and maybe damascus, depends on how much time my friends will give me.
I bought a badger skin, but I haven't figured out how to turn it into a sporran yet. The tanning skills I (had previously). Doug thinks I should buy a sporran and just cover it, don't really like that idea though.
No sewing for me, not interested. But that may be the only way to get a casual according to the keeper of the books.
Maybe I should establish a traders corner to go along with the kilt adoption agency.

Prabably the skill to be a more dapper Kilt wearer.

Mostly, I have developed the ability to spend large sums of money on kilts and kilt goodies without going into shock :rolleyes:

I have developed the ability to smile and nod instead of taking offense at total jerks

And I have developed the ability to preen in front of a mirror and fuss over the way I look.

hmm...

thermal dynamics ( hot air does rise, and will take anything it can with it!)
Inter-species relations (yes, there are some people who just might be from another planet)
Stand-up philosophy - Ever meet a kiltie who didn't have some crazy story to tell over a pint?
Leather work
improvisational needlework carpet needles are not just for carpets anymore
Substitute MC - a kilt, a pint and a microphone are not to be used together in public.

Lately I've been working on my skills as a semi-professional wingman. It seems that no matter how shy a guy is, put him in a kilt and he is an instant hit, and my single drinking buddies can sometimes use the help.
