However, based on what happened to Steve I'd recommend he create an alias, establish a separate brand, tell no-one, use a PO Box in Maine and charge $1,500 for copies.

Don't worry I am all set up. I am lucky because I have the fortune to say I can learn from Steve's mistakes. Sorry to say that.

I agree, way too soon.

Here is what he did with my AB beaver. Total refurb. I had him reblock with his raiders block. Sent open crowned.

Here it is bashed with turn

What do you think of the bash?

I think you did a good job. Keep it up my friend.

This is my Raiders Fedora, under different lighting conditions. While on vacation, out on my wife's family ranch, we got a freak thunder storm! The hat got drenched! In my ignorance/ inexperience I popped out the creases and totally messed up the hat. (I ended up making my Fedora look like a road-killed boonie hat) It was a gift from my wife for finally graduating college. I can't even tell you how much this gift ment to me, not to mention how crushed I was after I messed up the hat! My spirit looked as crushed as the hat...sorry COW members don't have any before pics, I couldn't even bring myself to look at it. Well, long story short, after a phone conversation with John, I sent him the hat and this was the end result!!! Thank you John! John's miracle work brought back my favorite Raiders Hat!

Jeremiah wrote:Really? I could swear It was John who told me to pop the creases out. I may be mistaken. Funny.

Normally I would suggest popping out the creases but in this case as he isn't really keen on creasing a hat I thought it best he just leave well enough alone. Advice "case by case"

That guy is a class act and customer service is bar none! Hope he gets the next Indy movie.

You are too kind. It was my pleasure. I hope you like the photo and of course the hat. Thanks again.

It's a c-crown using Marc kitters felt. Indy brown with vintage 1" ribbon and matching bound edge. I made one for myself and my buddy and good friend Giancarlo Esposito.

To give credit though, I watched John's video and it helped for sure.

There are a few helpful videos I posted here to help everyone and I'm glad it paid off for you. I think you did a fantastic job.

I missed all the members but not sure how much longer I can stay. After reading a few items I may just have to say goodbye to this place and that is heartbreaking as I really met a lot of good people like yourself.

Just a FYI. If you guys want updates on the Everyman line you will have to go look for it in the prop run section Of " Crescent Moon Emporium"

Post by **Indiana Jeff** » Thu Apr 14, 2016 1:44 pm

Or in the Fedora section where a shadow link was left to help with the redirect. Just keeping things tidy as your post was a 'for sale' post so belongs in the classified section of the forum.

Indiana Jeff

Thanks. Did not expect such a long list.

I'm a bit surprised myself.

adiemilio · Post by **adiemilio** » Thu Apr 14, 2016 4:31 pm

Great list John! I wonder what kind of lid is Adam Savage getting this time, to bad it's not going to be on the show.

IndianaDan · Post by **IndianaDan** » Thu Apr 14, 2016 4:58 pm

Adam and Jamie have a YouTube channel called Tested. Might end up seeing the hat on there!

Jeremiah · Post by **Jeremiah** » Thu Apr 14, 2016 5:30 pm

Love to watch that channel every now and again.

Wow. Impressive list! It just goes to show how much 'they' (the celebs) love to copy us normal folk

!) W>

Yep, it's not like we copy anyone.

TenuredProfessor · Post by **TenuredProfessor** » Sat Apr 16, 2016 8:34 pm

All this talk of what celebs John's made hats for got me thinking I should maybe see what they think about their Penman hats. So I asked Karl Urban. For the record I'm posting this with John's blessing and at his request after sharing it on his Facebook page. I participated in a charity motorcycle ride, and Urban was a contributor to the cause and likes to ride. There's no Penman hat in the picture, but I am wearing one of my old Todd's Indy shirts! Anyway, Karl is a super nice bloke, a die hard Indy fan, owns a Penman Raiders, and...we'll here's the picture. If Disney or Marshall or Spielberg ever change their minds about only Harrison as Indy, I've always thought this guy would have the chops...

BendingOak · Post by **BendingOak** » Sun Apr 17, 2016 1:32 am

I agree he would make a great Indy.

ChrisMD · Post by **ChrisMD** » Sun Apr 17, 2016 12:59 pm

Who is Karl Urban? Sounds familiar.

He's been great in everything I have seen him in. My favorite of course is Dredd.

Dangerfreak · Post by **Dangerfreak** » Mon Apr 18, 2016 12:20 pm

Here, here! I thought that film was great and Urban was spot on as Dredd. He was also pretty hardcore in Lord of the Rings. That was one heck of a spear throw to take out that bloke on the giant elephant.

Jeremiah · Post by **Jeremiah** » Mon Apr 18, 2016 5:06 pm

He was a good villain in Bourne movie. Forgot which one.

Don't remember him in a Bourne movie. He was good in RED opposite Bruce Willis.

He was the FSB agent who frames Bourne in the 2nd movie.

Ah, yes. I went into IMDB to see and was reminded of his role. He looks so young. Of course, that was 12 years ago.

Wasn't he also in the short lived TV show, almost human.
Loved that show, wish it'd gone more seasons.

you are correct.

I was thinking about Almost Human too. I was disappointed when it got cancelled.

As I promised and I will post more when I find them. Adam West, made two hats for him. This was the first one I made him and he took this photo just for me and had it to me the next day after receiving this hat. really nice and classy guy.

This one really should be here. Sporting a very special CS indy 4 hat I made him couple years ago. Working on a western hat for him now.
