CRM Whiskey today.

Thanks Harv! I'm trying to get my 100+ ties out in the wild on occasion. Tuesday seemed appropriate.

Wow, no offense to anyone but I haven't even worn a tie 100 times in my lifetime. If I had 100 ties I'd be having a garage sale, or making a gift to my local thrift store!

Jack -- No offense taken. I don't wear them either in real life so I'm looking for excuses. They all came from thrift stores so no major investment and I enjoy the hunting/gathering/collecting aspects. They are certainly cheaper than hats!

Bob, I'm going to look you up sometime! We're too close to never meet in person. Are you a member or will you be attending this is in April?

Jack -- The "Federation" is news to me. I'll have to check that out. If you come to town I'll buy you a MILF (we'll let others wonder about that).

Hey everyone!
Looking sharp today, all.
Thank you for the likes and nice comments.
Last summer, I found a thrashed Resistol 4XB Western at the flea market. I cleaned it up, trimmed it down and bound the brim, but that was in the days before I made my block, rounding jack or owned a sewing machine. I also tried to make it into a homburg. Needless to say, I wasn't overly thrilled with the results, so it sat unworn for months.
Last night, all my favorite shows were reruns, nothing on the DVR, so I busted out the poor old thing and reworked it into something I'm a little more likely to wear.

Crown is 5" as creased, 6" open. Brim is 2 1/4". My best brim binding so far. Thanks again tonyb for starting that brim binding how-to thread (and Art for adding to it!).
Have a great day!

Sam, I'm really enjoying your new pictures!

Thanks Alan. My new camera (Canon Rebel T5i) has made it much easier to get well lit detailed photos.

Dayum, son. That's a fine job, Moe! Love the color combo and brim binding. I humbly request a "before" shot.

Looks great! I wish I had some fingers instead of my 10 thumbs. I'd love to be able to give that kind of work a try.

Thanks Fruno and mmbarnes!
Sorry Fruno, but there are no before pics, last month I went and did a purge of old pics on my tablet. Didn't think to get a pic before I started in on it last night. I searched last summer's conversion corral pics and realized I must not have posted it there. Way too many pages of this thread to search...
