I am just wondering because I have yet to get it to work when it is simply pinned to the jacket. The weight drags the jacket into a horrible pulled position.

I did put everything together in that order (saving the dirk belt which I put on after pinning the plaid.)

And since I gave away my Rob Roy sporran I was left with that or a more modern design.

Thanks for the comments though.
Well you either want help or you dont.

Woodsheal has indeed worn the belted plaid a great deal. I have to laugh a little at this because I think its fairly clear you havent even read the first post of this entire thread.

I would even say Woodsheal is being exceptionally gentle with his suggestions to you. If you want to know what is not historically accurate about your kit the answer would be everything. That is the blunt honest answer.

So the question is do you really want to know? Can you take the criticism? Plenty here would be all to ready willing and able to help you make an authentic 1740's Scottish Highland kit together.

Sorry if you think me rude but that is just the cold hard truth of the matter.
