How to bash a 6 point bash

teneas · Post by **teneas** » Wed Jun 01, 2016 9:10 pm

I have a wedding coming up for a friend. I wish I had the money, and time, to buy a new Penman, but I don't. I ordered a carbon grey Fed IV, and I really want to bash it into a 6 point bash. Does anyone know a tutorial on how to do this by chance? Or point me in the right direction please?

Thanks ahead of time guys!

I don't have videos or anything. I just boiled water over my stove and bashed it the way I saw the pictures until I was happy with it....... right now my fed is a 4 point diamond crease, so I can't image 6 point is that hard.

I'm sure there's more qualified bashers out there that can help out....

6-point? I've seen a 5-point, but 6... very interesting.

Check out penmanhats.com and look at "The Penman". I want one so bad, but I can't afford it currently, nor have the time to wait. I have a new suit being made, and really want a dark grey fedora for the wedding I am attending. Maybe John can make me one as a present simply for being some #### attractive.

What does that even look like?

Huh. Never noticed that before. Without zooming in, it looks like a 4-point diamond. It has a very hand-bashed look to it, which is cool.

This is the hat they're talking about:

Thanks a lot John! John helped me over the phone, and with pictures to do my very first 6 point diamond bash!

Gotten it more defined at this point to, but this is a pic from when I was pretty close to done.

Serious thanks John, and I didn't even have to pay
