    Steam shaping a snap brim ?

    Thanks everyone. I think I'll have to go buy a new kettle.

    Steam shaping a snap brim ?

    I just came to realize the wife got rid of the tea kettle for an electric one. So I'm unsure what to do. Would the steam from the electric kettle be enough? It wouldn't have any pressure or real direction.

    Steam shaping a snap brim ?

    This is my first "nice" hat other than a leather western. So this will be my first go at it. Sounds as if it should go okay. I'll give it a go in the morning and report back. Thanks

    Steam shaping a snap brim ?

    I have a Stetson that has been slightly misshaped during moving. The brim in the rear of the hat has been pushed upward. I have never shaped a hat before but it seems a minor task given some advice. it is a felt with a snap brim. Any help would be greatly appreciated thank you.

    The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard

    In my well worn leather western I got called Stevie Ray Morrison at a gig one time. As if to imply Stevie Ray Vaughn / Jim Morrison gave me a laugh :eusa_clap

    Prostate exams

    Had to go through my first one recently and found out I already at age 40 have an enlarging and caught it early. Not an enjoyable experience at all but well worth it.

    Had anyone ever been tempted to stop hat wearing?

    The day I never have to go outside again I'll stop wearing hats. I only have a few different hats a leather western for Colorado winters (Though I have now moved). A mesh wide brim for summer sun and heat and a Stetson Versailles for spring and fall. A baseball cap for just having a cap on...

    The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard

    while playing a gig in my leather western and leather pants (see avatar) I was called "Stevie Ray Morison". As to Stevie Ray Vaughn + Jim Morison =. :eusa_doh:

    Post New Hats Here!

    I love that the ribbon changes the whole brown look into something more stylish.

    Musicians?

    I have found there is a lot more respect for each other here than at the guitar forums I frequent.

    Musicians?
