    Adventurebilt Shrinkage

    Hi all, I've been gone from the forum for probably over a decade, but for those of you who remember my username, I hope the last years have been kind to you. I have a (Steve Delk) Adventurebilt which I bought probably 14 years or so ago, and which to my shame I don't wear very often - I'm...

    Rest in Peace Colby Jack

    What terrible news. I coincidentally came back to see what was new around here. Very sorry to hear this. I believe he is on my FB page also, so I presume its appropriate to leave messages there too? Very sad. He was a genuinely nice guy.

    Visiting LI...

    Thanks for your suggestions and help, everyone. Car hire will definitely be helpful, and while I am tea-total, the people I'm with might well be interested in wine. :) We're going to be in North Bay Shore from 13th to 24th April. We might also travel up to Boston for a couple of days, and...

    Visiting LI...

    I'm visiting Long Island for a couple of weeks in the second half of April. What's going on there at the moment? What is there to do and see? Thanks guys

    If money were no object.....

    That's great. I've been looking for inspiration before I contact Art, and I think I've just found it. As for the question of this thread, I'd want to commission a team of scientists to use traces of DNA to bring back extinct animals. My hat would have felt made from thylacine fur, a band of...

    Showcase of Non-Indy Federations

    I'm thinking I'm going to just send my hats to Rusty from now on, and let him shape them for me. Fantastic. This thread is a good thing for me. I have three feds, all bashed in variations on a centre dent theme, and I need to make them a little different. Something like Viper Man's bash...

    how do you store your hat?

    No offence, Rick, but that would freak me out if I had to live with it. It's as if they are floating, and as if they are looking at me. lol

    That's a Heck of a Lot of PMs...

    According to the front page, I currently have 65535 private messages awaiting reading! Fortunately, when I go to my private messages, this proves not to be the case. lol

    BBC's Adaptation of "The Thirty-Nine Steps"

    What irritated me about the new adaptation was that it promised to be a return to Buchan's original novel, which was one of the only books I was made to read at school that I actually enjoyed. Instead, this new version introduced a whole new character - a woman, no less! - who at every turn...

    BBC's Adaptation of "The Thirty-Nine Steps"

    Anybody else disappointed in this evening's shoddy adaptation of Buchan's novel? Discuss.

    "Australia" Film Hats

    Thanks Rusty. Good to see I'm not alone. However... The Squatter they are offering doesn't look much like Kidman's hat. IMO, it's almost akin to those pale comparison Indy hats places offer. Maybe it would look different if it was bashed more accurately, but as shown on the RMWilliams...

    "Australia" Film Hats

    I feel like a newbie! I'm kinda liking one of Ms Kidman's hats in "Australia". I don't have to feel too transvestite about it, because it is a bloke's hat: Do we know anything about this? I'm not big on all the bushman style akubras, so is this one of them? The bash is deliciously...

    Not So Happy Christmas...

    No no, the hat isn't vented. :D Hi, Dewhurst.

    Not So Happy Christmas...

    Of course, MH, I agree that, should this situation turn worse, I will be happy to make sure that my feelings are known. However, right now my dealings with this hatter are still in progress, so it seems a little premature for me to rant publicly about a transaction that is yet to end. In...
