Fedora's groundbreaking tutorial...?

On Sun July 11, 2004 (about pg. 42 in the "The Fedora" archives) there's a thread started by Bufflehead Jones entitled:
"Fedora's most excellent hat creation tutorial".
That thread is for comments on another, unknown thread that contains the actual tutorial. Only one problem...
There's no thread anywhere near that thread containing a complete hatmaking tutorial from Fedora.
I searched under Fedora's name, no luck.
I tried "tutorial", "hat AND making"... no luck.
I checked the FAQ, didn't see any reference to it.
I have been looking for two hours now.
Where did this 'most excellent' tutorial go?

You can order it from Billy Mays on Home Shopping Network for the one time, low-LOW price of 4 payments of only $19.99 each. And if you order now you'll get a lovely Billy Mays autograph that you couldn't give away if you tried.
Order now!

I'm sorry, I appreciate the levity, but after all the time I've just spent looking, I'm not amused.
Thanks for the attempt. As a staff member, can you make a recommendation?

Spatter,
the only one i recall is Marc's tutorial on the making of an AB....it's still pretty recent and should not take too long to find. hope that helps.

I am familiar with that one, and Marc did a great job. I agree, it's a heck of a tutorial or guide to the AB Dlx.
I was just curious what Fedora had written back in '04 trhat garnered such praise yet remained so maddenly elusive.

Hi this is Billie Mays, (rasp, cough, grin,-hands and arms wave across screen)
order now and I'll throw in four more boxes of oxyclean free of charge, that's right, just think how much we were overcharging you since I can actually offer you free stuff for your timeliness.

I appreciate it. Seriously, it's a pain sometimes keeping a good humor on a board like this, and I am grateful for the upbeat attitude.
I was just frustrated to find a reference that went nowhere.
Thanks, also, to everybody else. At least I know it wasn't sitting right there in front of me and I was just missing it.

Thanks Michaelson! I had overlooked and actually forgotten the thread. I feel stupid now

I think Dalexs(probably did not spell that right) hosted it for awhile. Probably lost in cyber space by now. But, I remember it well.

Nah, I never throw anything out... I'm sure its on my harddrive somewhere (yes, the one that is currently crashed...)
I could always repost it if you would Steve.
