Hi folks,
I've just finished turning a Stetson cowboy hat (possibly a Rancher model) into a fedora by cutting the brim down and reshaping. I've fitted a grosgrain ribbon and made a bow and it's looking pretty good.
I'd like to make and fit a wind trolley though, as I think they look neat, and need to see a pic or read a good description of the actual construction of them so I can replicate it. I know they are simply a cord which stops your hat blowing away, but I need to know how the cord is attached to the hat, how it's attached to itself when on the hat on a non windy day etc, any help would be appreciated
If I can figure a way of posting a pic without a digital camera I'll do it
