First hat and first bash. How am I doing?

[Lean'n'mean]

Nice job, I'm not a fan of this type of hat but you've managed to give it a little more style.

Thanks, it was fun trying.

Don't now who moved and merged my original thread, but thanks. No use in creating new threads on an existing subject.

Re-do it until you like it.

Have fun. You like it, you wear it!

You don't like it, you change it!

Did my first recrown on a brand new Open Road today. Can still see a little crease left over from the Cattlemen's crease it came with. Any tips on getting it completely out?

The leftover crease doesn't show in your picture but more steam and a bit of handling should do the trick.

I can't see any problem with your hat, but I've used a cleaning sponge to remove texture variations from the prior creases.

Looks like a nice job, Matt!
The only thing I know of is pleanty of gentle, steady steam, and patience.
