To allay at least some of your fears or concerns.....good felt is incredibly forgiving. It is much like a good clay and can be molded easily with steam. If you don't like the crease, give it more steam and take it back to open crown. JJHat Centre has some good YouTube video's on hat bashing as does David Morgan and I am sure dozens of others.Here's a random question, as I don't think that it deserves a thread of it's own!
Is there anyone in the Minnesota - Twin Cities area who has experience with getting a good crease in a new hat with an Open Crown? I've never gone that route, but I may be doing so with my first Gannon hat. It should be on the block in the next few days.
I don't want to mess this up the first time around, so if there's anyone in the Twin Cities area that would show me any of their tips, that'd be awesome... I'll bring sandwiches or beverages of your choice, whatever your thing may be!
