gotcha. makes sense now-- thanks!
I'm not offended by what he did to his hat Sir, ....
really Alan? Should he NOT have his own thread to show of his work? Simply because it's a hat I built for him doesn't mean I can claim anything from it.
As I read it, it was started as a showcase of my work, not to showcase what could be done after the fact or how my work can be copied by others. Really, it's as simple as that.
I have placed an order for a chocolate brown VS in an "Indy-style" from Art. I'm torn, since I already have a Fed IV Deluxe which is a great looking hat.
The biggest hurdle will be explaining to the wife my rationale for purchasing a very expensive hat that, to her eyes anyway, might look identical to the Fed. What do you guys think? Would you do it? Too redundant?
You're asking the wrong crowd, JB!
I like both hats you have pictured. How could another one hurt?

Step 1 - don't ever let her see both hats at the same time.The biggest hurdle will be explaining to the wife my rationale for purchasing a very expensive hat that, to her eyes anyway, might look identical to the Fed. What do you guys think? Would you do it? Too redundant?
Just wondering JB, rather than have Art make a clone of the Penman hat, why not get a real one from John?
I love Art's work (I have one on order at the moment) but for an Indy hat, I'd get from one of the guys that specialize in them.
Yeah, my wife always asks,"Don't you already have a hat like that?".
"NO dear, this one is different", I say.
THE classic response and universally applicable to hats, guns, knives, etc. - nearly everything except women.
Since my wife is outnumbered by male humans, my son & I, she has no trouble with multiple female dogs or horses.My wife has already told me only one female of any species in the household (human, dog, cat, horse, etc).

Rabbit;1 Would someone be able to post a fairly hi-res pic of one such hat? Any help highly appreciated.[/QUOTE said:Interested too!
