Re: Adam Savage talks about his fedora at Maker Faire 2012 (
Thats why I always thought you had three people had their hands into the look of the Raiders hat. Debra, Richard, and Harrison.
Re: Adam Savage talks about his fedora at Maker Faire 2012 (
yeah it seems interesting that she would take what was an already beautifully bashed Raiders hat and put that teardrop/c-shape center bash to it. The brim I can understand her trying to make the hat look lived-in in probably the few short moments she had it in her hands before placing it on his head. But I don't know about that center crease. Maybe she was just trying to shape it around Adam's character and personality. Who knows. But I liked the way it looked in this original picture.

...or maybe Adam just prefers a C-Crown?

Re: Adam Savage talks about his fedora at Maker Faire 2012 (
Except for the front pinch, the hat looks like an amateurish attempt at creasing a Raiders hat. I, too, noticed the incorrect crown, and the brim just bothers me.
Also, there was no mention at all of Steve Delk. Not taking away from Marc, but isn't Steve the guy who actually made and submitted the hats that enabled Adventurebilt to get the contract? And then Steve made the hats for the movie? Does Adam not really know this? Apparently so.
Regardless, I enjoyed the rest of his talk. Kids should be encouraged to make things. Very few do these days. But they do have very strong thumbs thanks to those video games. And texting.

Re: Adam Savage talks about his fedora at Maker Faire 2012 (
Maybe he bashed it from the Hasbro figs?
Honestly though it's one of the shows my son now wants to watch all the time and he wears that hat a lot. I knew Marc had given him a hat and I kept looking for it but I always assumed the C-dent was just another lid and not the Adventurebilt
Now, I know.
...someone needs to teach him how to re-bash a lid

It looks exactly like the Hasbro figure! That was an awesome video, but he has ruined the crease job on it...

Guys, you don't know if she didn't put in a center crease in and Adam messed with it. Look how messed he was on his facts. He call the brim made of kangaroo hide when he Kent sweatband. He's all over the place. The other thing to consider is she hasn't creased a raiders hat in 30 years.

I wasn't talking about Deb. I was talking about HIM! I would have to assume he creased it that way...

Re: Adam Savage talks about his fedora at Maker Faire 2012 (
Well Oak, at least he was wearing a hat and showed his inner geek for Indy. I'll forgive the bash no matter who creased it
Re: Adam Savage talks about his fedora at Maker Faire 2012 (
Actually, I believe Deb did it like that because I think she bashed it liek that the first time she creased the hat.
If I rememebr correctly, there is at least one scene where Harrisons hat has a teardrop bash.
maby it was the wardrobe people or harrison himself who did the famous center bash....

Re: Adam Savage talks about his fedora at Maker Faire 2012 (
Yeah, I think I can actually see that in the first shot.
Holy Cow!!! That's the shot Hasbro used!!!
Re: Adam Savage talks about his fedora at Maker Faire 2012 (
yep, the first shot looks like a teardrop but popped out on the right side but you can still see it could be popped right back in..

Re: Adam Savage talks about his fedora at Maker Faire 2012 (
Although it could be a centre crease that's just been picked up roughly and planted on with a dent at the back....It's a little hard to be sure eh? I'd suggest that since the rest of the movie goes with centre crease, that it makes more sense for it to be a mishapen centre dent than a different crease that was changed later..Since that's a proactive choice...Rather than "just a mistake"...
Who knows though right?

Re: Adam Savage talks about his fedora at Maker Faire 2012 (
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the Hawaii shoot at the end of the filming schedule? If that's the case, most of the movie would have already been shot with the center crease so it wouldn't make sense to all of a sudden put in a teardrop crown.
Beyond that, Adam is such a great speaker.

Re: Adam Savage talks about his fedora at Maker Faire 2012 (
Nice story about the hat, one question though, wasn't it Steve Delk who created AdventureBilt hat company 1st and Mark Kitter joined ranks and open the European version of AdventureBilt, estentally the same company, two different continets.
And why wasn't Steves name never brought up, I thought it was he who got the contract and they both submited hats.
Not trying to split hairs, just think Steve shoulda got some credit.
Now I'l lget off my high horse.
And if I'm wrong in my asumptions, I aploigise in advance.

Re: Adam Savage talks about his fedora at Maker Faire 2012 (
Not sure that Deborah changed the creasing on this hat. I mean why would she mess it up if she already recognized it as a Raiders? I'd rather say he had changed it on it's own while playing around with it.
Actually I'm not sure when he had the guts to do so because in those scenes it seems to be still our original creasing:

That looks like the man with no name hat from Knudsen hats which he usually wears on the show.Sammy wrote:actually, it appears he has the c-crease in this one.Stefan wrote:Not sure that Deborah changed the creasing on this hat.
