Here is a new technique to make your crown open without a block.

That’s crazy. I may have to give it a try. I have two western hats that don’t have massive deep creases but because the crown is tapered I can’t seem to knock the crown out properly

Wish the link could embed, but here Gannon has a fantabulous grey felt hat. just a joy to see it sculpted on the fly.

There is only one problem with these videos from Gannon, the videographer's location is not great!

Wish that they would have a table between the two of them. Gannon on one side and the videographer on the other, so you can see it as the crease, is put in and not after. That is my only complaint, his work and shaping look great.

For the past few days, I have been unsuccessfully looking for a video. Perhaps somebody could help. I remember a routine Red Skelton use to do where he showed the different types of characters he could play just by bashing his hat differently. All I can find that's even remotely close is his "How to imitate a drunk" video where he does a little hat stuff at the beginning.

Anybody else remember this?
Not sure about the Red one, Jim, but i recall Harry Anderson doing a sketch with a hat brim and the different type characters that wore them by changing the brim shape. It was amusing.

Apparently there’s this thing called Instagram and it has videos on it. The Hattery (Hats Direct) has videos on creasing and shaping the Fed IV:
