Hanging My Hats

[Cabinetman]

May I send one of you a picture of what I have? I don't have a hosting service anymore (I cancelled my picturetrail account last year when I realized I wasn't using it). I received this display apparatus from my sister who originally purchased it, and others like it, from Hold Everything. However, when I last checked that website, I couldn't find anything like it. It was several years ago that she purchased these. Once hats are on it, it is very similar to the wire wall rack featured in this thread.

In any case, I have been milling around the idea of recreating these or something similar in all wood and marketing them here. I also would like to offer display cases for those folks with that "one-in-a-million" hat. I have seen what one hat shop offers for a display case...Baron's perhaps?

I have no pictures of prototypes or even drawings to show you what I am thinking about. I've been too busy to derive something other than my jobs already at hand.

Would there be an interest? It does seem that proper displays or racks are hard to come by.

Yes, interest

I'd be intersted to see designs, especially if I/we could have some input as to certain parts of the design. I could also host a few pics if you want.

Hopefully I'll need a rack like that someday

Looks good Kaleponi Craig. Some nice hats there.

Thanks, Adam. Since all of my work (to date) is custom, certainly your input would be welcome as it would for you. If I offer a ready-made product, then that could be developed after input from several folks. That's simple market research, isn't it?

Thanks for the offer to host a pic or two. Could you send me a PM with your e-mail address?
