My transformed AB

Post by knibs7 »

I sent my AB to Steve to have him trim it down to the CS size and had him re-bash it into a CS bash. Before pics on the left, After pics on the right. I couldn't be more pleased. It even seems to fit better now :D

Thanks Steve!

I read transformed so I thought it turned in to a robot. It looks good, can't wait for my AB CS to arrive, sometime next year! :TOH:

Thanks guys! It was already my favorite fedora, but now I like it even more! It even fits better, best fitting hat I've had so far.

Don't you love it when that happens? :D
Out of all my hats I think I have two that are utter perfection in the fit department.

Cheers! :TOH:
