WineGuy said:Lesson number one: buy the best quality "unblocked" and "unfinshed" Montecristi you can afford THEN give it to Art Fawcett for finishing.
Just got the hat back an hour ago, fits like a glove, no waves and the bands are perfect....Art, you are the greatest!!!!!!
Hey WineGuy,
Great hat! Just perfect. I absolutely love the band, much better than the old one...:eusa_clap

WineGuy said:Hey Goose, I purchased a vintage hat stretcher on ebay and found that by liberally applying some Lexol leather conditioner to the sweatband and then steaming the hat with an iron and then placing the stretcher in the hat and leaving to stand 24hrs opens the hat up without distorting the crown.
