BUCKAROO BONANZA! - The Hats that Major Mike Moore Makes

[Chepstow]

Nice Ribbon work, Rusty. Looking forward to see the finished hat!

 

[RBH]

Thanks Che and Manfred, I too am looking forward to see Mike do his magic with the vintage ribbon.

This shot has 3 hats in front that belong to a Lounger and the one in back belongs to another Lounger.
Its fun to get a glimpse of these hats in process.

Some more ribbon...

And another photo of the bow I have picked.

That is a darn sharp ribbon work, respect. Also the crease and shape what Rocky did on the Western that looks really good.

Lando I'm getting a campaign hat, in beaver, whiskey color and stampede cord. Gonna debut it at the Nov. 9th West Point Game.

Hi Worf

The Whiskey will be a great color for a campaign hat. I have one in undyed Natural that looks great. Pecan would also be a great Campaign hat color.

Yeah... can't wait. Myself... this will be my second "bespoke" hat. My first was a CRM Fedora which I love to bits and wore today. Any pics of your Campaign about?

Worf, you hat is a really good color.
I look forward to seeing it finished.

Very nice ribbon sandwich, Rusty! Especially with the pointy "gambler" bow. Is that a 3/8" (4''') on a 1/2" (6''')?

I've had it a while. I usually wear it for Scout stuff.

Yes Ole, I believe that is the way its made.
I have the same type bow on a vintage Penneys Marathon.

Please don't forget a "brag-pic", when it's finished. I'm really excited to see the newborn dressed properly

 

[DesertDan]

Ohhhh, loving those ribbons, can't wait to see the finished project!

Yeah... I like it when someone takes a more personal slant on a traditional theme. I'm sure no one in scouting gives you grief over the non-traditional look? Mine will have an upward sweep on either end and I hope it looks half that good! I'm learning a lot about hats, crushes, crowns and brims... next stop... ribbons!

Well Worf, that's what I was after, a non-traditional look. I don't hang with the "Super Scouts" in spite of having the Council President as our Membership Chairman and the Field Director and his kid camping with us. The Field Director was a major Pyromaniac too. Made campouts fun to watch.

LOL! If you had a dollar for every Scout that lost an eyebrow or some hair at some campout I'm sure you'd be rollin' in dough!!! It never fails, get men/boys around a campfire after a long day's slog and SOMETHING involving, fire, knives, hatchets, fireworks etc... is bound to happen.

Hey

I always carry pocket knives while camping, and I attach them to a lanyard. The Scoutmaster's 4th kid was standing close to the fire peeling the bark off a twig really. His hand slipped and the $9 Swiss Army knife went into the fire, whoops.
