    I think he viewed it as a challenge.....not intended to earn the monetary value of the time requirement, but the enjoyment of rebuilding something to a high standard. The life of an engineer!

    I'm quite sure that's how Steve must have viewed it. Also, with that approach of great care and attention to detail, a kiltmaker just couldn't bear to leave anything undone that needed to be done to make the kilt right. I really respect that.
