Converting an Akubra Cattleman into a Spring/Summer Fedora
Good looking hat. Although it has been pointed out my post is in reality about a converted Plainsman. I have contacted the admins to see if I can change the thread title to avoid confusion. I like that shade of your hat, what I believe on some Akubras is called sand. I have a Town&Country Akubra...- Doc Miskatonic

Converting an Akubra Cattleman into a Spring/Summer Fedora
Doh! Well spotted sir! I meant to say Plainsman but was sorting all my Akubras today. I changed the band on my Cattleman so that was going to be my next post. I will correct in the post!- Doc Miskatonic

Converting an Akubra Cattleman into a Spring/Summer Fedora
Note: this thread is actually about converting an Akubra Plainsman, not a Cattleman sorry for the confusion. I had been searching for a nice warmer weather fedora but just honestly could not settle on one. I have an Akubra Sydney that is a nice light weight fur felt but lined. I contemplated...- Doc Miskatonic

Dashboard Confessional -- What Home Remedy Have You Used to Re-Shape A Hat?
I would love to see a video demonstrating that. Not that I am weird or anything. I'm not expecting you to reinact a scene from the movie Ghost only with your hat. Just wonder about how you move your hands up and down. I am so shutting up now. :eusa_doh: Who'd like a fedora massage? Fedora...- Doc Miskatonic

Dashboard Confessional -- What Home Remedy Have You Used to Re-Shape A Hat?
Mixing bowls definitely seem to be a popular choice. I did not use any of ours because although rounded on the sides they were either one size too big, one size too small or the bottom was very flat and grooved. As for modifying crowns, when I first did the bash on my Sydney I created the...- Doc Miskatonic

Dashboard Confessional -- What Home Remedy Have You Used to Re-Shape A Hat?
I was definitely happy it worked moderately well. Part of my thing (I hesitate to use the word "problem") is that although I am not technically inclined, I tinker. I always feel compelled to fix things on my own and refuse to let it go. I have fixed damaged iPods, my Wii when my son jammed a...- Doc Miskatonic

Ever Heard of Allyn St. George?
Good evening, viewers. A short while ago I won on eBay a chocolate brown fedora. I have been searching for a reasonably priced hat of such a color for a while now and had started looking at vintage hats (slippery slope, since that way lies addiction), when I came across an auction for this...- Doc Miskatonic

Thanks, mate. Although I don't know how much risk was involved when my mindset was, "Well the hat is probably ruined, so, why not?- Doc Miskatonic

Dashboard Confessional -- What Home Remedy Have You Used to Re-Shape A Hat?
Good morning fellow Loungers and lurkers. This is my first post so I thought I would start things off with a little confession, which they say is good for the soul – I have not been very nice to my first real fur fedora. If there were an American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Fedoras...- Doc Miskatonic
