Super tight weave on the Monty. That ridge in the block gives the hat that extra kick into +3 land.
Beautiful block, Rabbit. Very, very nice.
Gentlemen, let me present the high count Montecristi with 13 ligne black ribbon:
Indeed! Three pages after posting the hat, I finally have a picture of me wearing it:This thread really jumped the past 2 days, Art's been busy busy!

dnjan, i envy your mustache. :eusa_clap
The 5" crown is after the center-dent was in - I didn't think of measuring it first. So I an guessing that my open crown would be about the same as yours.Dnjan, I just put in an order with Art for one of those. Although mine will come with a 5 1/2" crown and a 2 3/8" brim. Everything else will be identical to yours---all the way down to the underwelt edge!
thanks!dnjan, I envy your mustache. :eusa_clap
I missed this earlier post - darn it.
GQ; That hat's dimensions really are working for you in the pic you posted. Congrats on the light colored felt. Marveous contrast with ribbon and felt - it gives the hat a sharp, dressed look. If you get an opportunity would you post up a pic of the hat in a bit more of a profile so as to showcase the ribbon and dimensions of the hat. I like what I see so far.
Congrats, Eric -
