Hat making

[drater1138]

I haven't seen this posted anywhere, if it is I apologize. I was wondering if anyone has or knows of any resources, books, etc. for hat making. I've got a few different hats I wear all the time, but lately the idea of making my own hat keeps sparking my interest.

I may get corrected here but I would call this the hatters Bible : "Scientific Hat Fninshing And Renovating: A Complete And Profusely Illustrated Course Of Instruction, Enabling The Novice To Acquire The Art Of Finshing And Remodeling Hats Of All Varieties According To Tested And Approved Methods." By Henry L Ermatinger. I bought my copy from Amazon. It was originally printed just after the turn of the century and is packed with lots of great information. There are also several great threads on the FL that give explanations and pictures that will help you on your education.
