Hi fellow kiltmakers! I just finished making my first kilt and found all the needed supplies except a good source for the leather straps and buckles. I was able to get ¾" straps and matching buckles from Tartantown in Coquitlam, B.C., but I really wanted larger ones. Does anyone have a mail-order source for 1" and/or 1¼" straps and buckles? I'd love to know so that I can have everything ready for my next kilt in the fall. Thanks, ***Amble*****

I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose… Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
Many of us who make kilts for a living order our straps and buckles from one of two or three places. For mail order may I suggest you contact either one of our advertisers or Kiltmakers or try Highlandxpress.com Here is a direct link. http://www.highlandxpress.com/patterns.html#bs That is where I get mine.
