Impressive, that takes a lot of patience to do. Either you have some top notch thread that won't tangle easily, possibly waxing the thread prior to use, or you have a bunch of patience to undo any bird nesting that might happen pulling that through. Nice work sir!

Thank you very much! If you thread it on the needle correctly you can reduce the bird nesting. Also, you should see my fingers

It's not my custom to post pictures of myself online but I did today ....
In thanks to Mikael for letting me have his first Oxblood Dillinger 100X (also available for other orders I'm sure).
Everything about this hat is exquisite. The design, construction, the materials and colour.
Two pictures, indoors and out, in darkest and inclement North Devon UK. much better photos further back!!

Thank you Mikael, a wizard, a true star.

Wonderful hat! What is the crown height?

 

[Arnold Layne]

Wonderful hat! What is the crown height?

Thanks Robert,
Mikael says it's 5.5" and measuring it, 14cm it is open crown, so 5 inches to the center dent at the front.
I have a few hats with a 6" crown, 5" center crease but none of them look this big!
I presume that is the magic/optical illusion of the reverse taper ... the crown looks so voluminous and of course the brim is only 2 3/8".
I said he was a Wizard.
This is a brave hat. I've not seen anything like it and I'm honoured to have the prototype, #1 if you will.
Thanks Mikael =)

Yes, in the picture I was not sure if it was due to the upward looking camera angle. Also, not many of us spell 'honoured' properly!

Interesting style, I would like to see a direct close up on that ribbon bow. It looks to have multiple folds. Very nice.

Beautiful hats everyone. Hufvud rocks with a unique combination of presence, style, and grace, sheer charisma. The star has entered the building.

Bloody phone corrections: "sheer" not "sheet".

We’ve all experienced this. You can go back and edit posts, but after some time time (days) the edit function stops working.

Thanks for asking Brent! I can't reveal that yet. But it will be three of the same kind of hat style. Will be ready by next week. The 63 might be ready over the weekend.
