So the production of a black CD has withered on the vine. I will let Sam know not to pursue it any further as the demand is not there presently. Thanks to those who spoke up either yay or nay.

If someone else wants to gather a group for the taupe fawn or maybe the Akubra bran shade in 2 5/8' feel free to jump in.

Thanks for being willing, Mike. :)

Crease it yourself. Put it on your head, find the center line, and work from there. I did the preliminary work with the hat dry, and then used steam generated by a teakettle. Others prefer to wet the hat with a spray bottle.

You can't go wrong. If you don't like the way it is going, knock out the crease and start again. You can't hurt it.

I did mine in a C-crown, which sort of splits the difference between a teardrop and a diamond.

I notified Sam a couple of days back about the black not working out. He is still waiting for Akubra to open to get us an answer on Bran or Fawn. Once I hear back I will pass along the news. If it is a go a new thread will be opened to collect numbers and share our interest.

For now we wait, but fawn/bran seem to be catching on nicely.
