Mael Coluim,
Thank you very much.

Turpin and McMurdo,
Erm, well, I think I need to lose some weight ;) The waist strap has been moved to it's long position, and is the reason why I will be changing my measurements for the leather rkilt.

My problem is that I have a gut in the front, and a butt in the back, so while the two measurements given are ok (well, my waist measurement is going to be made a bit bigger :P) the fact that the two measurements don't "cone" out downwards, rather, they look like two circles overlapping each other, makes my hip measurements too small. Steve Ashton's FK measurement system takes this into account, by drawing a straight imaginary line down from the outermost front point at the waist, and you use that point to measure the hips, rather than going tight to the front.

James MacMillan,
Thanks for the acknowledgement.

Mike
