Thanks for making my weekend. Love seeing you guys under those hats. I'm glad to see that they are home.
Peace.
Need. Badly.

Casual Sunday. Maybe a bicycle ride if it warms up a few more degrees.

Enjoy the day,

Glad you are having some respite from the arctic conditions. That brim is large and in charge!

Just finished up another "Tallboy" conversion. This is a Resistol Stagecoach in Silverbelly. It's the very same dimensions as the brown one I did, tall crown and 2 3/4 brim. I went with a thin ribbon and a campaign style bow...I'll post more pics later in the Conversion Corral.

No 4' brims were cut down in this conversion process. :)

Ruined one of my hats this morning trying to stretch it...ooops.

Afterwards I consoled myself by playing with my Akubra Fed's

Unfortunately, the best way to learn such things is trial and error. And the errors often really suck. But you don't do that the next time. Hope it wasn't one of your better ones.
Nice Feds though!

Heres an epic shot of my Indy Raiders Akubra. The one thing I notice is the ribbon isnt black. Not sure if the Federation comes with a black ribbon anyhow.
I'm not sure it ever came with a black ribbon if you ordered one of the brown hued felts (i.e., Tawny Fawn, Heritage Fawn, Dark Brown). The ribbon on my Dark Brown Fed IV is darker than the ribbon on my Tawny Fawn, but in the right light you can see it's brown and not black.
