Im kinda fond of...

    Great... I suspected that boiling water might soften way better than steam. I use a handheld clothing steamer that does get hot and damp, but it doesnt put out a high volume. My steam Iron does a pretty good blast of steam so it does more work on hats than it does on shirts lol. Someday Ill...

    Rock Hard Stiffener?

    Just a thought... if the goal is a stiff hat... just be sure the hat is broken in / reblocked /or shaped to your head BEFORE copious stiffener is added...it can turn a snug hat into an uncomfortable hat pretty quick

    Hats and Drinks - A Match Made in Heaven

    Finally got a tiny bit of sunshine here with a comfortable breeze . Sitting out on the patio in an old Towncraft, with a Celis Belgan White Wheatbeer (with a splash of Mango Nectar) . Topped off with a pipeful of Suttlf Vanilla Custard tobacco... Nice afternoon
