    The best kiltmaker I know, personally is way2fractious. I've seen his work and it's flippin' gorgeous. I would be proud and thrilled to own a kilt made by Richard. Richard also has done a lot of work in researching and understanding how to make Military Box Pleats. He's run up against most of the common problems and solved them. At least four X-Markers are wearing kilts made by way2fractious, and every one of them is wonderful.

    But he hasn't made 50 kilts. He's a dedicated amateur and "occasional kiltmaker".

    Making kilts is not magic. It is not mysterious. It is time-consuming and takes patience and care, yes, but it is not something where a "dedicated amateur or "occasional kiltmaker" cannot turn out a spectacular piece of work.

    You have every right to set what criteria you wish in choosing your kiltmaker. I only suggest that you re-think this one.
