    I don’t know about the northern rabbits or coyotes up there, but I know Georgian Randalls would freeze to an icicled corpse!

    Thanks, Phil! I sent Randy’s Mallory with new logo’d sweatband today. I’ll be burnin the late hour oil tonight on yours. May not finish, but will be mighty close if I don’t.

    Here’s the civil war hat I done for that Marine friend up in Sota I told y’all about. He finally picked it up from the PO yesterday. He’s been too busy huntin and has taken a 1200 pound moose and 3 white tails. I’ll include a partial copy and pasted message he sent with the pic. Makes me happy...

    Overheard you talkin the other day and guess what? I trained at Fort Leonardwood Back in 1986 at their Army heavy equipment school. A small Air Force detachment trained separately on all the various huge pieces of earth movers. Had a blast there. Great memories, except Army mess halls suck...

    Yes, means I’ve been able to get back to building your hat AND be able to use a fresh tricked out sweatband and liner in it!

    Got my new sewing machine in today! This one works great. Sewed this gold decorative stitching on about 12 sweat bands and finished sewing the decorative stitching on the brim edge of a hat where my first machine stopped when it broke down. Back in biz! Hopefully this sweat band stitching of...

    I listened to about 8 of those vids last night. Some I skipped through, but a few of those interviewed were entertaining enough. I found it interesting, as well. Heard several hatters say they won’t ever share their knowledge, techniques and tricks with anyone. I’m sure that’s “smart...

    That would probably work well when trying to upsize a vintage 7X too. I haven’t been able to get much stretch using just warm water.

    So far, my method for blocking hats and this one hat body hasn’t included steam. Just complete water saturation, work the wet felt over the block and let dry. Only use steam when putting in creases on the finished hat. And only use a steam iron on dry felt, as well. I don’t know if that’s the...

    Pretty sure ole Nick fouquet and his cloners have that market sewn up. But hey, if I could get $1500 for a hat I almost might think about using match sticks, bandannas, buzzard feathers and torch em up.

    Followed your link. Yeah, I’m hoping I don’t have to channel my inner Hampui while making hats using their out of body bodies. For the sake of correctness I fixed just the Bolivia thing in my post.

    Ah, Cali. Ha. He only said Berkeley and I ended up googling it to find out where it might be. Michigan was the one that came up. I’ll have to look up Hampui hats, too. :-)

    Thanks, Joe! Every time I see or hear Saginaw, Mi. I start singin one of Mighty Merle’s big hits, so I’ll be singin that song a lot when putting this hat on. I’m a huge fan of the Hag, as you can tell from my avatar choice.
