The curling machines are unreal, I have three of them, and a bucket full of curling heads of differant size curls, will have them sand blasted and polished there is one that is the biggest curl I have ever seen in that bucket.

Ribbon, and ribbon and ribbon, there are 100's of rolls of 4 line 6 line 9 line 12 line, and boxes full of 14, 16, 19 and 22 line ribbon, more 3 ply and 6 ply ribbon than I could ever get in all colors.

Hope to get piping for steam and blow down lines done in the next week or so and have the blocker cleaned and painted and in use by Sept 1st.

Hope to get the vintage air vent dies cleaned and installed on the machine to do those wonderful vent designs in the crowns and sides of some of the hats we make.
Almost forgot about the wind trollys I found in a box with all the ribbon I bought

Yep....
We will have a really cool item to post soon.

G.D., yes I suspect we were the only ones with fedoras, ha. I went to Abbots Lagoon, and it was grey, but a relatively high ceiling. At Point Reyes Station it was sunny, of course.

Belated Happy B-Day! Great Panamas and photos! Also USA Fencing picked up two medals at the WCs yesterday!

Joao, a super place to chilling. Thumbs up for the Resistol!

Here with this weather, we just can't say no to a trip to the beach

Joao - hat suits you well, and the beach looks a great place.

Thank you. The place is amazing. I can't describe it with words and I forgotten to take some pictures to show.

Today I'm wearing my recently converted Resistol 4X Cowboy hat. I haven't posted pics of this one yet. The label under the sweatband was written by hand, not computer. Based on the tall crown, liner style, and sweatband, I would say it dates to the late 70's.

Great job and it looks very good on you. Someone wearing a western that it's not me

Continuing my vacantion, spent some days on my parents country house. Not far from Lisbon (less than 50 kms in strait line, 80 kms by road). The morning was a bit chill with some fog but later in the morning the sun showed it's heat. During a walk I took this picture

Resistol Black Gold 20x beaver

Many thanks, Steve! What a year it has been for USA Fencing! Terrific Habig today!

Happy Birthday Al! Thanks for sharing.

Great pics all-around.

Minnesota evening is 67'F with a breeze off the water that makes a wool Pendleton 49'er jacket comfortable this evening. My VS Whippet (sahara colored felt) tops my head in comfort.

As already mentioned it is Super Tuesday here for sure today.

I've not had much time to check in the last few days, changes at our company have me getting in early and staying late with way too much to do all around

Been mainly wearing my Worth & Worth Montecristi, including today:

This has become my go-to summer hat, a WORTHwhile investment for sure

Wonderful hats today, gents.. Awesome job on the hat, T Jones! It looks very good and I bet it fits pretty good too, man! Manofkent, that is a good looking hat and I love the coat you are wearing too. rlk and hatsrme, good looking hats as well. Love the straw. Garret, that is a beautiful hat. Maybe someday I'll get one as good looking as that.


Today I wore my Stetson Sportlite. Good hat to use in this weather we're having here.

 

[Stuffsmith]

Nice hat, HamilcarBarca3!

 

[Alive'n'Amplified]

That Stetson looks fabulous on you!!

Started off with my brown Fed earlier…

…and turned to my freshly reblocked Worth and Worth panama tonight. Cut out the shrunken cloth sweatband and after gaining about a quarter inch in height and folding in a new brim-break, I sewed in the leather one I had left over from my sadly departed Deckard fedora. That part turned out OK. Overall, still far too low of a crown, and now the brim is only about 2”, but it’s wearable now, and comfortable. Was going to toss it. Ribbon work is terrible, but the diamond crown turned out great. I’ll post some shots of all my hat’s diamonds over in the proper thread in a few days.
