The other bay display will be for Fedoras, hoping to have the move done by the Sunday after Thanksgiving, meaning all blocks, flanges, sewing machines, sand bagger, spinning table , boxes of ribbon, 300 plus hat bodies, tables , racks, the list goes on and on. But fellows ya'll helped make this happen, I had out grown the home here, and we did not want to build a building here yet, so we went looking and looking and I found this place.

Tonight there is a big Blue Grass concert going on at the Ruffin theater across the street, may try and clean up and attend tonight, but I have things I need to pick up at Lowes tonight, so I can get another early start on Sunday morning.

Will try and get the two counters in maybe Sunday, they will go in the middle of the building and from left to right, that way a person can stand at the counter and watch a hat being made, and I'll have one of my steam nozzles by the counter so I can steam a hat and customer can see his or herself in the 4 ft by 8ft mirror and we can make sure it's just right on the head.

I took several hats over this afternoon, there were 4 ( 7 5/8) in the batch, all were western weights, either a Gus or Tombstone crown, these are good sellers at SASS match's. 60 hats will be hanging on the racks by this Sunday night. I may have to get more Grid Wall panels!!!!!!!!!

Good Luck Major Moore. I hope to be able to drop by your store one of these days soon! I know you'll be even more successful with a "bricks and mortar" location!

[warbird]

Awesome Mike! That is terrific news.

If there is any way I can help, please let me know. I help move for beer. :cheers1:

 

[majormoore]

Thanks Warbird, last night I boxed up some 100 hat blocks, still have about 30 more to box, then onto the flanges, ribbon, sewing machines.

Just wish I had done this three months ago, Sat night while in there working on some cases and so on, there was a Blue Grass concert going on inside the Ruffin Theater, and about 40 people walked by, gave thumbs up and some asked how soon before your open, so maybe when I get the sign hung up and all moved in the shop will be complete at that time, and several will stop by before going into the Ruffin or coming out from what ever is going on that Friday or Sat night.

Thanks for the offer, all ready had several people tell me they will move the beer for me.
