Hey Terry. Good to hear from you bud. I hope you and yours are all doing well. I pretty much scratched that itch with the new hat. A ready to wear line of hats would definitely be the way to go, with only the occasional custom thrown into the mix. I'm still plugging away at my full time job, though, so for now I prefer to jump around in my free time and do whatever grabs me in the moment. Let's catch up sometime soon. Be well.
Sounds like a cool combination CRH. I'm not sure who out there still makes them for sale.
That's what 26 years in Phoenix will do to ya.
I have a sister in Phoenix, Encanto neighborhood
Or not yet. Graham at Optimo could put one together I'll bet.
Hola Max. It's great to hear from you. I'll definitely check out Brent's Facebook page. Funny you should mention the conformateur. I spent months repairing and restoring it to it's original glory and I recently used it to measure a beautiful, hat-loving woman from Atlanta. It's one of my most cherished hatter's tools. Thanks again for making it available to me!
It's good to see you back here, buddy. I think that ready to wear line, with an occasional custom would be the way to go, for sure, and not failing to mention the hat tools you make. The rounding Jack you made for me is still going strong! It hasn't failed me yet! That's one quality piece of equipment.
De nada, Rick! I am so glad I sent it to you, instead of keeping it on a shelf!
Oh! And, humanshoes, I forgot to say I think you are a great human being.
Very kind of you to say so Max. The feeling is absolutely mutual!
I don't think I deserve it, Rick. You help a lot of people who desperately need you all the time.
Not to get too philosophical Max, but life's interconnectivity never ceases to amaze me. For instance, you help people have the ability to smile and, if I'm lucky, I help people regain the desire to. The payoff and the power are in the smile and the methods are two sides of the same coin. Siéntete bien, amigo mío.
