hahahaha...in all seriousness, I have tried many times to make it look passable in order to have something for the folks w/ NO money for this hobby. i.e., how to get in at $30 and start trying.
I'm finally upgrading due to an unexpected raise at work (:shock:!), so I plan to make a study out of my DP...I will try to go Mythbusters on it, to see what it will and will NOT do. I will even try my best for a Mythbusters ending. No more hints...hopefully I'll have something for ya'll in a couple of months.
Including, possibly, the only Dorfman reshaping tutorial for the truly IndyOnA Budget.

That's my favorite option. I remember Minnesota Jones telling me about how surprisingly good his fur felt DP was. But even if it's a wool one, pass it along to someone in need of a hat. Those Dorfmans served many a young Indy fan well when they first came out, especially since they where about the only option for a good while. If it's going to be used as a hardcore "field test," that's one thing. But to just sit and destroy it when someone could use it bothers me a little. To quote John Hiatt:Dre wrote:give it to me?
if you're going to throw it out or destroy one i'd gladly take it
"Don't know who they think they are/smashing a perfectly good guitar."
Let the hat live.
bink
if i is a fur felt and fairly new you could sent out for a re-blocking. Look at what I did with Indiana Texas girl's.
Which reminds me, I have gotten all of my equipment together and a pretty well set up to start doing repairs and re blocking while I finalize me bodies and ribbon.
If anybody is interested drop me a pm.

High regards! Michaelson
I will eventually have a website, and hopefully a store front in Fort Worth. the website wont be up for a while as I am still working on bodies and then haveto produce hats.
If there are any venture capitalist in the group please let me know, I am working up a business proposal for opening a store and making it my full time job.
thanks

True, Michaelson.
BTW, What tight pinch are they refering to? If it's the same hat that Disney has outside the Adventure Post six years ago, there is definatley no tight "Raiders" Pinch...it barely makes it as a Last Crusade bash, let alone a Raiders bash.
PS:Maybe Herrington knows something we don't: All of a sudden Indy "hats" and Safari/Adventure shirts are getting more common?!?!
Conspiracy....I think NOT!

Thanks for the nod, Bink. If I don't completely wear it out with what I'm thinking of doing, it will end up either in my daughter's collection or passed on to friends who keep borrowing it from me.binkmeisterRick wrote:But even if it's a wool one, pass it along to someone in need of a hat.

And if both my kin and kind reject it I'll keep it in the workshop for some future Halloween when someone joins on Oct 23 and are just STUCK.

I just finished my home theater and was looking for one to hang on my wall. I have a Peter Brothers hat but thats the one I wear and when not wearing it goes right back into the box. I have a IOAB and a MKVII thats going on the wall too. If anyone would like to donate one of their DP's to me I would more then happy to hang it in their honor. I would even post pics Dont destroy something just beacause you got something better.
MY HOME THEATER NEEDS YOU!
I will even pay for shipping....that is the elast I could do

I have noticed his hat was innacurate. I even tried to think up ways to mod the game in order to fix his hat. No luck so far though. The rest of his gear however looks really accurate to me. If I recall though I think one time I saw a crest inside of the hat when it got knocked off in the game. I could be crazy though. 8-[ Sometimes I find myself looking for a canteen like his just to put in my mkvii.Dre wrote:that dorfman is going for 80 us? an akubra would be cheaper for me to get (shipping included with akubra and not with that one)
on a side note: anyone notice how indy's hat in emporer's tomb isn't screen accurate? looks like a dorfman to me

Guys - I don't have my new hat yet, so I'm not parting w/ my DP yet. I'm also thinking of doing something with it for the board as a whole.
If I don't accidentally harm it in the process, and those w/ first dibs (offline friends) are willing to release their dibs, I'll consider sending it along to another Skywalker...er, Jones.
Too far off to consider it at the moment, though, so it's unlikely I'd get it to anyone before Halloween or the QM. It'll be down the road a piece.

That's a Dorfman? I wonder how much they changed over time...the shape looks the same as mine did out of the box, but there's no liner in most Dorfmans...or may just not in the wool (cheaper) one. That one does look like a better hat, but still the wrong block and shape that DP uses. Hmm.Floribama Steve wrote:I'm trying to get rid a of a fur felt Dorfman, it's relatively inexpensive when you compare it to the AB or the Keppler. It's in the classifieds.
Can't read anything in the liner...does it say something in there?

I just recorded something for you Dorfman haters -
It includes my impression of a certain skinny little character from Lord of the Rings. ENJOY!
We Hates Dorfmans!
(that isn't my best, for some reason the microphone makes my voice higher! Also you may not understand a WORD I'm saying!)

It seems that Indy wears a Dorfman without a pin and with a HJ crest. But it could be worse, here's some of Indy's previous game hats:Colby wrote:I have noticed his hat was innacurate.

Well Done, Andiana.
That was great!
That does it ... I suggest we have a Dorfman torture ceremony onboard the QM ... who's with me?
I'll bring my piece of @#$% DP and we can mash it, sit on it, stomp on it, hang it from the ceiling and whip it, ... kill the Dorfman. Don't let it live. Burn it. Burn it I say ... whew, I feel better now.

Oh yeah, his mom and I are friends, too.
Dorfmans can be good for something.
Yeah, you're right ...
... goat food, firestarter, doggy chew-toy, boot buffer ... etc.
Hope everything is going well, Tuck.
