tricks for a leaky soda siphon?
Hi folks! I'm putting together a modest home bar and, being a traditionalist to the core, I picked up a '60s or '70s vintage Soda King seltzer siphon to go with it (I'll drink my whiskey neat before I make a highball with seltzer from a disposable bottle, thank-you-very-much!). :-) I filled...- Swamp_Fox

Akubra digger / slouch hat 7 1/8--mine on eBay
I have an Akubra digger hat up on eBay now. It was going for cheap, so I bid on it even though it's a 7 1/8 and I usually wear a 7 1/4. Well, I got it and found that it is indeed too small for me (fits true to its 1/8 marking) and that the brim looked way too wide on me. Rather than...- Swamp_Fox

Adam Executive fedora 7 1/8--mine on eBay
I have this very pretty, but moth-bit Adam fedora on eBay. I wear a 7 1/4, so this 7 1/8 hat sits a little bit higher than I like (and refuses to stay stretched more than a few hours). The minimum bid is a little steep, but I don't want to part with it for less than that. If anybody is...- Swamp_Fox

Determining age of Akubra slouch hat
I picked up an Akubra digger / slouch hat on eBay and it's marked "1/8" rather than "7 1/8." Does that indicate that it's an older hat? The reason I ask is that I'm considering cutting the brim down by 1/2 an inch or so. This one looks WAY too wide on me; and brims that wide seem to get in... -

I bought this vintage Resistol fedora last weekend for next to nothing. I was wondering if anybody could tell me the approximate age of this hat based on its style. Also, I was wondering if anybody could tell me what kind of an edge the brim has. I've seen raw edges and various kinds of bound... -

New Life for an Old Hat
I thought I would share my latest thrift store find with you folks. I picked up this nice vintage beaver fur western hat for $8 at a Goodwill store. When I got it, the crown had something like a safari bash and the brim was terribly misshapen from sitting on it too long. It was also... -

I'm new here and I'm looking forward to being a part of this great community! I have a few questions about reblocking a hat. I have a Stetson outback hat which was marketed by Cabelas as "la Mesa" (mine is marked "Stallion" for some reason). It's made of a stiff wool felt. I've...
