Congratulations, Tim! A nice laid-back signature tune to go with classy fedoras:

The First Song that came to my mind after Tim announced the New Name "Alley Kat Hats" was the 80s Song by The Stray Cats ...

Wow guys......so very cool. 2 very appropriate tunes please leave these in here. Wouldn't want them to disappear through file deletions on your end.
Michael the stray cat video was actually good. There was some classic art in there as well. I had a lot of things dancing around in my mind for logo design and I felt that with some of the cartoonist work.
Dane I totally dig the recording even to find a beat up 45 for a shadow box....I got to look. In just trying to find some really cool items to dress up my work area.
Again thanks guys and follow me on Instagram. #alleykathatco

I'm glad, you like it - and yes, it's a nice little catchy tune. In fact it won a Grammy Award for Best Rock & Roll Recording in 1963. I know, I know ... but so it did!
I'll keep an eye out for a 45 for you around CPH

Any word on your progress? I'm excited about this green ORJoining the club. I'm on the block.
I think the bartenders should merge this thread with the Cane Rod Maker thread. Just my two cents.
Here is my dark moss OR clone in progress. Thanks Tim!

Moving along. Sent a barter hat out today. ...making headway on CWV.
I made a new friend. We have forged a good relationship. I have NOS windcords and I found a cashe' of old ribbon . I am currently waiting for all the dust to be wiped off boxes AND then the misson begins. She said they have not been in this deep dark spot in 30 years. Assured there is hatband. Ill know just how blessed I am in a few days. So......moral of story....be kind. ...be polite....show pictures to anyone....converse with anyone. This woman's family owns a mill. I was simply antique shopping and found myself being invited to look at old ribbon. Cool! I hope I can fill my pick up truck with it!

Great news, Tim! Let us know when you get through the haul. I might try to wrangle a wind trolley or two off you if you're up for it.

Im having problems posting. I sent you a PM. My friend bolthead will be taking pictures of all my hats as soon as I get my liners and then I will let him help me keep after it.
I would sometimes find myself taking pictures for hours. I need his help.
I did this barter with Scott. I saw he had something I needed. I was in perfect position to barter. I gave him freedom of binding them. It gave me 24 extra hours to work on some orders. He did very nice work on them.
Future note: my hats are all 100% me. With that exception.

Sorry. Im not going to be selling wind cords. They cost me dearly and are rare. It took 4 hats and time to do it. For trade.
Im hoping to have a very unique product line. The windcords are for the Alley Kat "Prowler"
Hopefully I get some good pictures up real soon. Im thinking Im about 2 months out on liners.

I'm very late finding this thread so I just now finished reading through it. Great looking hats Tim!
I have several hats Tim made for me over the past few years. All of them are fantastic. Tim is not only a great hatter but a helluva nice guy too!
