At leaast you aren't,"mad as a hatter." Early days they used mercury to treat the fur used in making felt hats in confined spaces and they would develope, "Hatter's Disease" from the mercury. It was mercury poisoning. I enjoyed the video!

Interesting. Still a bit mad even without mercury ;-)

@roxysimmons 2 месяца назад

Interesting that you didn’t use any stiffener.

Yes this felt was already prestiffed by the felter. @@roxysimmons

@ Вітаю Вас. Дайте пораду будь ласка, у мене така шляпа втратила форму. Як мені її вирівняти? Дякую

Месяц назад

@@user-et4hi3sr8o Hi there, the best is to use hot steam to get a felt hat back in shape. If you don't have a steamer you can help yourself by boiling water and hold the hat into the steam.

@ramziblue1594 2 месяца назад

I really like how you did the sweatband. Just a nice leather strip with holes and a thick thread. That way you can sew the leather directly onto the felt, nice one!

Awesome craftsmanship, I’ve always loved seeing how hatters go about their trade. Was the water you submerged the hat in at the beginning hot or at least somewhat warm? I saw another video where the water they used was so hot that the hat body came out steaming!

Месяц назад

Thank you. Yes exactly, the hotter the water the easier it gets to work with the felt.

Hi, thank you for such a great video! When you burn off the fibres, do you apply an alcohol based solution?

Год назад

Hi ALIA, yes you can spray an alcohol based solution. The less water in it the better it burns. Best Regards, Oxblood Team

@ApostolosK06 4 месяца назад

Nice video! Do you use any kind of felt stiffener on your hats or do they hold shape without it?

4 месяца назад

Hi Apostolos usually we buy quite stiff felts and if they are not stiff enough for our need we then add some shellac stiffener. Best regards, Oxblood Team

I guess I’m just wondering how the liner stays on! Thank you for such a great video

Год назад

Hi Johnny, if the fabric has a certain stiffness there is usually no stitching needed for our lining.

@shaquilledean2218 Год назад

Amazing. I am just curious to know why dint you sand it or rabbit felt don't need no sanding ? As I am a beginner.

Год назад

Dear Deen, yes of course you can sand your felt, that makes your hat even smoother. This step is not shown in the video.

@KamilBalck1 2 года назад

Hello, I have only one question. Do you use any glue for stif? I'm on beginning of my millinery road, im practising on the cheapest wool felt, im following youtube tutorials and i wonder if I use rabbit hair felt, hat will be stiff after steaming and waiting 2/3 days without use stiff products. Now after that 2 days hats still are soft.

2 года назад

Dear Kamil, yes we mainly use rabbit hair felt. Only steaming won't make your felt any stiffer. To stiffen your felt you need to add felt stiffener either with a brush or with a spray. The more liquid you use the stiffener your felt will get. You can purchase felt stiffener directly or mix your own with shellac and alcohol. Best Regards, Oxblood Team

@kecemmyfelt 8 месяцев назад

Hi, great job🎉 is it pure ethyl alcohol or cologne sold in the market?

@javierrodriguez2863 Год назад

Looks great, is it 100% beaver? It looks very soft, and I didn't see you pounce the felt! Like the way you soaked it in water to make it more stretchable .

Год назад

Dear Javier, thanks. The felt in the movie is a beaver/rabbit blend and certain pouncing was already done by the felter.

Did you apply any stiffener? Great hat!

Год назад

Hi Mad Hatter, thanks. No for this hat we didn't apply any additional stiffener. The felt had already enough stiffness.

@parkerduncan1449 8 месяцев назад

How do you cut the brim to size after flanging it? The video jumped from it being curled to flat and I was wondering if those are two different hats?

8 месяцев назад

Dear Parker, in the video you see the making of two different hats. One with a flat brim and one with an upturn brim. To cut the brim you need a rounding jack. You see the tool in the video after Min 2:08.

@tonycass8469 8 месяцев назад

@helenhenry6218 Год назад

If the hat is not a special order how do you figure the size? Do you make the sweatband and make the hat to fit it out vice a versa?

Год назад

Dear Helen, we have a lot of different wooden hat blocks from size 54 cm up to size 65 cm, we fit the sweatband then to the size of the shaped felt.

@Paka1983 Год назад

If you make a hat with a cardboard stiff brim, what do you use to make the brim extremely stiff?

Год назад

Dear Paka you can use stiffener from hat suppliers or you can buy shellac flakes and mix it with alcohol. The more flakes you use per liter the stiffener the felt will get.

Si el sombrero se moldea con vapor de agua, ¿qué sucedería si se moja con la lluvia?. No veo que apliquen impermeabilizante o fijador.

2 месяца назад

Hi Sinobre, that's not a problem, as the felt can only be shaped with hot steam and water doesn't harm the felt.
