Colby · Post by **Colby** » Mon Oct 10, 2005 10:22 am

Well how much did you pay for it? The beaver is over $200 and the rabbit was around $150ish.

I thought Steve didn't sell rabbits anymore

Colby · Post by **Colby** » Mon Oct 10, 2005 1:25 pm

Well I believe he said until mid October. So maybe he will accept a few more orders just to get his old stock out.

I actually did already order! Actually, Colby and I chose very similarly - let's Steve do the sculpting, and both chose to have it turned with a generic Raiders kind of bash & style. I think we even picked the same three scenes that we liked - temple, Raven, Cairo.

Only two differences I see - I ordered a beaver, and since I was sort of btwn the round oval and long oval, we decided on the round oval to see if we could get a bit of dynamic tension going in the hat to maybe warp that brim and bloom the mushroom a bit.

We'll see what happens when it gets here...trying not to think about it....argh!!!!

P.S. I have loved bashing and shaping my own hat...and I'm sure I will even play w/ this one quite a bit over time...but why miss a chance to have the master hatmaker do it first?

Colby · Post by **Colby** » Mon Oct 10, 2005 5:40 pm

At least now you and me can both compare how Rabbit and Beaver react to basically two exact styles.

I consider my rabbit hat my fedora training wheels.

I plan on getting a gunbelt with holster, whip, and maybe a new pair of pants and shirt before I upgrade my hat to a beaver once everything is said and done eventually.

Colby · Post by **Colby** » Mon Oct 10, 2005 5:54 pm

BTW I finally got brave enough to sit on my hat a couple times. Man does it really make some good reverse taper and it really softened up the hat.

Almost...but not conclusively. If we'd both picked an EXACT scene, maybe, but I think we both just asked him to get creative, didn't we?

I'm not planning to sit on my hat. I'm either going to do it by accident

or just wait until my little house-apes do it for me.

So I give it a week.

Hey! Turns out mine's a beaver!

Well, I'll have 1 rabbit AB as soon as it gets here that is

IndyFlyer · Post by **IndyFlyer** » Mon Oct 10, 2005 10:37 pm

I'm in there too. One brown beaver currently, and one week into Fedora's waiting list for another beaver in gray.

Mr. Das · Post by **Mr. Das** » Mon Oct 10, 2005 10:49 pm

I've got me a beaver too!

I guess you can add me to your list. Well in a couple days anyway. My rabbit AB is on the way

Thanks Michealson

Hey Tone!! Just call when you've bashed the #### thing!!!

Fedora · Post by **Fedora** » Tue Oct 11, 2005 1:26 am

Do I own a beaver or a rabbit? Whatever it is, I LOVE it!

Yeah, yours is beaver. The thing is, I have sent out beaver hats in the past when the customer ordered rabbit. I upgraded the hat for no charge. I had to quit doing it when the bank account for the shop got depleted!!

And, I never told most folks that I did so. This was early on, last year when I first started before it became apparent that I could not continue to do so and stay in business. Yeah, I know it is stupid, from a business point of view, but I had to learn it on my own.

Oh, I only count 34 hats above. Where's the other 466?

Some of that could be repeat customers.

I am only listed once, but I have three of your hats, so far!

Colby · Post by **Colby** » Tue Oct 11, 2005 9:56 am

I'll tweak the list later to have the listing of number of hats owned and maybe even a link to a picture.

Good idea...

and if you want to add a picture here the links to my hats:

RABBIT (raven bar) http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y157/e ... f6bad8.jpg

BEAVER (pagey's cairo) http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y157/e ... G_1378.jpg

you could also add the styles owned

Here's my rabbit AB. Its probably teh best pic I have, although it is old. My AB has definately developed more character since it was taken. It has a nice Raven Bar look to it now.

Rabbit AB

Colby · Post by **Colby** » Tue Oct 11, 2005 10:29 am

My Rabbit AB is already developing character and has broken in nicely after about a week of recieving it.

J_Weaver · Post by **J_Weaver** » Tue Oct 11, 2005 10:31 am

Just wait till you use it in the field for a few months. Dust, rain and cobwebs have done wonders to mine.

Rabbit AB

I wish we could see more pics of that hat now. I only saw a couple of pics since i'm here on cow

Considering that we chose the same kind of hat (rabbit raven bar) i would like to compare them
