Old Wooden Hat Block

Post by bigrex »

So, here's a "nifty" hat block I "won" at a "rummage sale" on eBay. I think it should produce a pretty decent Indiana Jones hat. Eventually, I'll get a cowboy hat to experiment on. I guess this block may be a bit stubbier, more sloping and maybe slightly more circular than a Raiders block, but it I think it's still in the ballpark.
