Good on ya', Scott. Just be happy it would take three or four of your kilts to fit 'round my fat ****, or I'd be making good use of my master key and your closet!

Duct tape or black electric tape is great for the sporran clasp. I have several Stillwaters and have never had pleat problem. And our Pub has an outdoor firepit in winter, to which I am firmly attached. Have never caught fire, smouldered, melted nor sparked.
Am waiting for new tartans, then I shall decend upon Jerry like a Gull on a bag of chips.

Well, good luck. The standards aren't bad, and in some ways the acrylic has it's own nice feel to it. Glad I'm not the only one who has put tape on the clasps.

I can't seem to get the tape to stay on the cat claws, six cats here, so like Nighthawk, I have issues. Thanks for telling us about the cat urp problem with the acrylic, Nighthawk... very useful information.

Ok, here is the Alan H thread on the pleat issue. He has a lot of threads, so hang on to this link.

I know!! I think I saw thirteen pages of threads listed for him... However, I didn't mind looking through all that because I found several threads on the way there that I needed for jacket conversions and so on.

GO SWK!

I love my 2 Standards (Royal Stewart and Mackenzie). I think I am ready to upgrade to something a little harder on the wallet, but I will always be an SWK customer. You CANNOT beat the service and value.
