Alan, good analysis. However, I read the comment about "kiltmakers ripping us off" a little differently. I thought that it was in reference to those few companies out there who have very poor customer service, who use other companies pics for advertising, charge nearly the same price and then provide an inferior product that is nowhere near to being on time. As for the economics of Kiltmaking and how difficult it is for these craftsmen to make a living at it, we have to look no further than at one of our former members, that had to close his company, Pittsburgh Kilts, in order to make a living and support his family.
