    Homemade hat art - 1st try ever.

    Err... was that supposed to be a problem? :eusa_doh: :D Actually, I have no idea! The ribbon I used is only ¬?-inch wide and was rolled on a small drum in the store. I guess it kinda wanted to stay flat out of habit. :) Cheers! /F

    Homemade hat art - 1st try ever.

    Thank you, Bruno. Yes, I saw that you had given your hat "the treatment" to. Looking forward to seeing the result. Thanks, Dean. Yes, it was fun... and easy! I thought it would fight me more. :) Well, dunno about all that. The ribbon I found was not was I originally had hoped for, but I...

    "Great Coat" in the middle of summer

    Well, I see the problem. [huh] Maybe you can find something similar in a Danish surplus store? Even though we are neighbours, I know next to nothing about danish uniforms. :o /F

    Swedish motorcycle ordonance jacket - Canvas

    I was hoping this jacket would arrive today but I guess the postal "service" is on slow burner during the summer. It does look more military then the leather variant, yes. And that's OK by me. It will be fun to try it out to see what I can match it with. Wish I had a 50's motorbike though. /F

    Homemade hat art - 1st try ever.

    I got the idea that I wanted my new PB Cuenca to look a little bit different the other Panamas... so I bought some silver-gray ribbon and got to work... The result,,, well, lets just say I'm no Art Fawcett yet. But it sure is personalized. :D Flieger

    What a deal

    Ahh... Back online: Man, this hat is soooo different from my Pachacuti Brisa. It feels much more "distinct". The Pachacuti is like a wet rag on top of my head in comparison. Brim is 65-70mm (haven't learned fractions of inches yet) Crown is 120mm. REALLY LOVING IT! :D /F

    What a deal

    Oopps! sorry about that, RBH. I'm usually quite liberal with photos here on FL... :o Problem is I can't get to my Photobucket account at the moment... as soon as it works there'll be photos again. :) /F
