Most enjoyable and interesting!
Take a good look around the site, its deceptively deep and full of very nice and different things.

Very cool!

Is this a hat block?

I've been drooling over some of his blocks for ages.

Unfortunately the import tax is pretty steep, so I was planning on going there and see them in real life.

Enjoyed the video and their site. They quoted me $190 USD with shipping for a Model CB194 block (tall and straight) in Size 8 long oval. Might be nice to have for some at-home re-blocking sessions. Might also be possible to send it out some custom hatters who don't have access to large size blocks (BYOB?).

Sounds like a good investment,you'll likely look long and hard to find a used block in your size/shape.
