What is going on with this site???
The site was rough this morning. I wasn't able to log in. So, I just turned on the ROKU and watched a few old "Rawhide" reruns on Pluto TV. This evening, though, (6:45 pm EST), FL is up and running normal, pretty fast, actually. -
Western, anyone?
That's a good looking hat. One of my favorite styles. -
What Hat Are You Wearing, But Struggle to In Public
In your heart you know he's right. I can still remember watching those Goldwater political ads on TV (way back when). Pretty neat momento, Bob. -

Just a little finish work on the brim and it's on its way! -

I may have something in a medium gray. I'll check to make sure, and if you have enough brim I could probably do something pretty close to a Prince Charley clone. -

What is going on with this site???
This is what I got a couple of minutes ago, (@ 7:29 est). The site is beginning to slow down. -
What is going on with this site???
It's 5:23 this a.m., (est). The site is running normal. I'll give it a check later on today to see if it follows the same pattern of fast in the early morning hours and slowing down as the day wears on. -

No Randy, I sure don't. I could probably work out a variation with a Telescope crease, if that would be of interest. -
T. Jones Custom Hats, Repairs, and Conversions
I've got a Resistol 3X and a Knox Stagecoach that I refurbished and recreased with Montana Pinches and 'Mule Kicks'. They're one of my favorite creases for a big Western. The Resistol is a silvery Palomino(?) color. It's a fairly big hat with a 6 1/2 inch open crown and 4 inch brim. The biggest... -

That Dusty Blue Periwinkle's a heck of a color. I really like that one, and it pairs up nice with the Gray. You did say that one was going to be a 7 1/4 LO, right? ;) -

Western, anyone?
Yessir. It sure is. It's one of my favorite Eastwood movies, and it's also my favorite Costner movie. -
Western, anyone?
Clint Eastwood, "A Perfect World". This is one of my favorite Western styles. A Cattleman crease with a nice full crown. Narrower brim, (3-3 1/4 inches), with a slighter 'Cowboy Curl' that's just right. It's a perfect profile for these dimensions, imo. -
What is going on with this site???
It's currently 5:47 a.m. (est) for me right now and the site is running normal. Later on today it'll probably start running slow and choppy again. That's been the pattern for me for a while. -

Gotta hand it to Daniele, he definitely pushed you (gently) into a nice one! -
What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

What Hat Are You Working On Today?
To be clear, my post above was taking a large hat and downsizing it to a smaller size. -
What Hat Are You Working On Today?
Well, it's a little more involved than just hot tap water, but still a very simple and easy method. I mostly use steam to soften the felt. On the more stubborn projects I use both hot water and steam. On shrinking the felt down a size or two I use hot water to soak the felt and soften it up... -
What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
A reposting of another of my conversions. Gray Resistol Stagecoach that was gifted to me by a generous Lounger a couple years back. Reblocked to a larger size and converted to a Longhair fedora. I scavanged the ribbon from another hat and reused it on this Resistol. Before: My... -
