Here is another one of my "patented" wonky casual creases I really like to wear about.....
How much did it cost, Brent?I’m not sure why you need/want a block. Blocks are made for...er...blocking hats, and it doesn’t seem that you want to block/re-block them so....
I bought a vintage heated “block” that is actually more of an inside crown iron that I use to remove creases, etc. You have to be careful not to cook the leather sweatband. Sometimes I use it cold and use a steam iron on the outside of the felt and the cold metal “block” as an anvil for the steam iron to press against. These heated “blocks” are still available on eBay.
With the liner removed, you can mist the inside of the crown felt and use the hot block to steam out the creases from the inside. A undersized crown iron is a benefit and my 21” iron/block works well with my 24+” hats. Care is required to not cook/damage the sweat.
Closer to what you are looking for?

Wow that was a great deal. Most I have seen are much more than that.
Hey Dm:Not having a good go with the new resistol...
Previous occupant had a cattleman crease in it. I want it to telescope...but the cattleman makes it go back to having two big vagina lips in my friggin crown. Steamed it, rolled the dish in, rolled the sides fairly round and smooth, got the height right in the mirror, flattened the brim, but this bloody center....
It's really pissing me off and im trying REAL hard not to go get the shellac and be done with it.
I just don't know how to get the center portion to be round and stay round...it keeps moving to a square for some reason. And it won't stay elevated either. I put it on my head and push it out, it stays fine for 5 minutes then collapses back into the vagina lips...ugh.
Any advice?
