Ian Dundrillon said:I really like your latest effort. I followed a similar path to the same result with my twenty-year old Borsalino Roma. I like the simplicity of the center bash combined with the front pinch.

Thanks guys. I think I should delete my original pictures. My first attempt is actually quite embarrassing now
deanglen said:Exactly. A kettle with a good narrow spout. There is a handle, there should be a spout. heat up the water and the steam comes out! There is a device, called, logically, a steamer, that directs the steam pretty well, and gets a steam hotter than a tea kettle. Ideaguy told me about it, and he has one. I'm not sure what they look like. I should also have mentioned that when I was trying to remove the ghost crease, pressing it with my fingers while soft from a shot of steam, and then brushing worked best for me. You try to flatten it out, pressing it from inside and out at the same time. Takes patience and persistence.
Ah OK gotcha. As soon as I finish all this work I have to do, I'll give that a try.
Thanks dean.
