Tobus has been very patient though this entire re-build process. He only bugged me 83 times about his kilt.
So I thought that as the kilt has been finished for a while now I should finish this thread.
I can then get in in a box and get his kilt back to him.
One of the final steps is putting the Lining back in the kilt.
Then there were a few small things that needed to finish up this project.
I did a good re-enforcing job on the strap hole.
And then a quick press touch up.
Here is the kilt just before it went into the shipping box.
All in all, this project took 18 man-hours not including the time for photos and posting.
This time also included the removal of two pleats which I did not include in the photos as it was something based on the measurement Tobus sent me but was not part of the rebuild job.
Tobus, I'm sorry, you still don't have a full hand-sewn tank. But the fabric is first rate and this kilt should now fit the way you expect and last you a good long time. I hope you like it.
