Looks WAAY better on you than it did on me. Glad you got it kind sir.

Venky

Best of luck on figuring this out.

Cannot wait to hear more soon!

Venky

PERFECT LC Jacket! Well done!

Venky

i second that!

Venky

Same here! Cannot wait to send my info and get on this long awaited list. Which email would be the one to send to?

Venky

You know Holt, when you show off just one piece of gear, you have got to mention what the rest is, especially when it all looks THAT good!

Venky

Great work James and am proud to own on of your whips of this caliber. I just cracked it the other day and feels great!

Thanks!

Venky

It is good to know the legacy will be carried on by quality people with the spirit and integrity to preserve the Tony namesake in his future jackets. Bravo! It looks I will be getting a Nowak after all.

All hail Han Jones, King of the Nowak Jackets!

Venky

That Hat is lookin' better and better each time someone new gets it. I cannot wait to get mine! Great pics and presentation Daren.

Venky

His whips are truly growing on me. Beautiful color and craftsmanship!

Venky

Not a problem bud. ;) The MBA is the same as the Noel Howard. Some shirts like mine have the NH on it and others have the MBA. One in the TOD/LC style can be seen on Ebay that recently sold for the going price these days. Search under his name and you should find it easily. To many it is the definit...

Venky

Great write up on the shirt comparisons DHW. How does the WPG hold up to a MBA/NH? I have a NH and Magnoli and talk about polar opposites.

Venky

Great job on the use of fullers on the hats guys, very subtle, but just enough to get that worn in look. In regards to the application of fullers on Hats, I have had no problem taking them off my hats. All I had to do is use a high pressure air hose attahced to an 8 gallon air compresser of sorts. I...

Venky

Wow Holt, that is e very smooth approach to a not so common style of a Raiders Fedora. Once again, a sharp eye for the details.

Though I love your avatar of Donner Superman, that side kick has to be your new one. That has to be a first in the Indy community.

Stop beating up on your gear! Next thing you will be throwing dirt on it, heck probably just roll around in it for a while.

Before I give you any more ideas, that looks fantastic! Keep it up Michael.

Venky

Wow, I am out of it for a while and I come back and everybody has gone SOC nuts! ESPECIALLY between you and Fedoraraiders.

I'll have what they're having......

You know what you have there and you know how to show it off. The envy of many Fedora owners.

Venky

Hi Chewie! This is what I came up with when I inquired about the same thing. Hope it helps.

Sweet bag Michael, very well done. Am considering one of these, but my list of things to catch up on is WAY too much right now.

Venky

AWESOME!!

Venky

Hilarious.

Venky

Haha! showoff......... ;) Now that answers my question about getting a Strain. Why are you making all of my product decisions lately? :lol: http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/4979/pihlcwhip4.jpg http://i673.photobucket.com/albums/vv94/tundrarider/015-2.jpg Looks an awful lot like my Strain! :D Or is i...

Venky

Just shake some fullers of your other hat onto this one.

Looks amazing so far. What brand of hat is this?

Venky

I have a NH LC web belt and I believe he distressed most of his web blets. From what I can tell of his distressing, it does not reveal any silver or steel base.

Venky

Good advice Michael, I need to go get a 32 oz. tub then. :TOH: I wanted to get a 16oz tub of Pecard's online (from davidmorgan.com) - but the shipping costs TWICE as much as the product itself :cry: Does anyone know of any retail chains that usually carry Pecard's? Or Obenauf's? Hey TreacleMiner! I ...

Venky

WOW, those are really distressed nicely. Well done!

Venky

Indeed. I doubt that you could get away with wearing a certain "pin" as an accessory.

That is a very sharp hat.

Venky

Very interesting..... cannot wait to see what that will be.

Venky

I sure will!

Venky

If it could not get any better....it just did. Very bold move and it defintely is working for you. Man, you are clogging my computer with too many reference shots.

Great Job Holt

Venky

Great to hear all this! I guess I know now what to do then.

Venky

Cannot wait to hear more aobut this especially in comparison to two other great shirts.

The price a GREAT! Bravo

Venky

YGH, that isn't a regular Christy's. Don't buy a Christy's and expect it to look like that. That hat was reblocked and shaped by Steve. He also put SA ribbon on there too. This isn't a stock Christy's. Dave Yes to Dave you listen to! I had a really rare opportunity with this and this is not what yo...

Venky

Anytime Michael. Yeah, I wished I ran into you as well. Us Joneses are to few and far between, especially at a giant Con.

Have you given it the bleed test or does Wade insure that it will not do such. If so then GREAT! Even the NH straps have done so.

Venky

Very nice addition to your Indy gear Michael. It definitely has me considering one of these over my very own Noel Howard strap. I love the beat in look to it. Thanks for showing it off the way you did. Definitely sells it.

Venky

That is A LOT of shirts! Just awesome. Cannot wait for more details.

Venky

For a final coat that does not have any tacky properties, use Krylon Satin Clear. It is an acrylic clear quickly dries. If there is any area on the gun you feel is too shiny, then just lightly rub it down with a piece of grey scotchbrite (grey is a lighter abrasive than red.) Hope this helps.

I give Canyon an A+ for creativity.
Actually, Curator Rick should get that A+ since he built that photo op for the Finger Lakes Summit.

OOPS! my bad, thanks for the correction. Then, credit is given where credit is due.

Venky

Looks great Shane. As long as you're happy, that is all that matters.

Venky

I liked the hat, the artifacts, the location and the girl. LLS Careful! Chewie might get jealous! :P Lemme at 'im! http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb36/Fedora_Dog/Smileys/draw2wc.gif I don't have a Streets of Cairo hat to share. So, I'll help Canyon out with another view of her hat. :D http://fa...

Venky

Put it back on your head...HURRY!!

....before I steal it!..

That is such a different beast when it is not on your head. show what it takes to really break it in.

I would of never guessed that is the same hat that was on your head. Incredible.

Venky

Waiting....

Venky

Well there WAS a post on Holts hat off his head a minute ago. What happend?

Venky

LF, not that I'm bashing your hat, here... :P but with the great re-block work that Steve did on your hat and with the current brim dimensions, I might be tempted to make it into a really well weathered Last Crusade hat??? JMHO, though. It would be nice to see a really good distressed, battered and...

Venky

Cannot wait to see them.

Oh geez! The front of my brim MUST be too low to miss that post.

Yes, I do like that pic. Very nice AB, Do you have a pic after it has been beaten up a bit?

Venky

Canyon wrote:Great pictures, guys!!!

Does anyone like my picture?

I do!...um...which one?

Venky

Still working on mine, here is where it is at so far. Again this is my Christys reblocked by Steve on his vintage hat block http://img.photobucket.com/albums/0703/thelivingforce/INDY/Picture005.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/0703/thelivingforce/INDY/Picture004.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/a...

Venky

Great input LLS! :TOH: Yeah, I thought that those stains were that of sweat, and even some of the marking that you pointed out on the ribbon were that as well. Though all pretty much the same color. Fullers earth can simulate both the sharpness of the sweat stains to that of the dusty appearance of ...

Venky

I always thought the part you have as yellow was know more as the "sweat stain" since it runs right along the edge of the ribbon pretty much around the entire crown. The smudges and "dustier" areas on the crown and brim are just dirt stains. Both effects made possible by fullers ...
