    Afternoon All, just found these on eBay not sure if anyone is interested. I would buy them but am in the UK and would cost me a fortune in customs. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Antique-WOOD-WOODEN-MILLINERY-Vintage-Hat-Block-Form-Crown-Mold-Lot-of-5-/362091417473

    hi @BobHufford I've got a few vintage blocks and have not really put any treatment on them as of yet as it isn't needed. what I do, do is place a layer of cling film over the block before I block a hat. this stops the moisture getting into the block and destroying it over time.

    @T Jones that is a lovely looking hat, that crease in the crown is on point! I love a cattleman crease. Makes me happy when my clients ask for that type of crown! how tall is the crown and what width is the brim?
