Hey everyone, just thought I would mention that I no longer use Rub N Buff as my preferred metallic paint, you can check out my current favourite paints and supplies on my Amazon page (affiliate link) www.amazon.com/shop/lostwax

This is MAGNIFICENT. I have been searching EVERYWHERE for a top hat with a large brim, to no avail. So, now I can just get out my yoga mat, cut it up, glue it and spray paint and make my own. THANKYOU SO MUCH for sharing, I LOVE HATZ. Everyone loves hatz!!!

"You can choose a different colour if you want your hat to look silly." I probably shouldn't have laughed so hard at that.

@LoxleyHoodlum 6 лет назад

Time/headache saving tip: I had a heckuva time using the epoxy. It was curing too quickly and my rivets were coming out stringy and not at all like I'd hoped. I used Ranger's glossy accents, which dries clear and has a needle tip bottle for dispensing. It worked amazingly well, and very quick. It's a fantastic adhesive for dimensional elements as well. You can purchase it at any scrapbook store or at Michaels and it goes a long way.

@LostWax 6 лет назад

Thanks for the tip, I'll have to check that out. Some people really like the epoxy, but others hate it, so it's good to have options.

Earned a sub. You added some comedy, yet stayed to the point and made a really good video!

@LostWax 9 лет назад

Here's a response to Lou M, Unfortunately I can't respond directly to your question, in order to allow me to respond, go to Google plus settings, open Google account settings, Where it says "who can click on your public posts" change it to "anyone" That would be awesome! As far as sizes, the pattern comes with 9 sizes from 41cm to 63 cm head diameters. I haven't had anyone yet tell me that there wasn't a size that fit them, so you should be alright.

+Lost Wax Can I use paint spray to paint the top hat in black ?

@johandanforth 8 лет назад

+Jacky Fly I did that and it looked great. I used matte black acrylic spray paint (do it outside ;) later on I went on and added the "plates". It looks awesome!

@mephi5t0 10 лет назад

Oh wow, once rub-n-buff went on that thing the rivets made so much sense. Beautiful. Make moar things. **off to buy a yoga mat**

@jenniferokeeffe5028 10 месяцев назад

I appreciate your tutorial. Using foam had not crossed my mind as I thought of ideas how to make a hat. The contact cement was great too for quick grab application and minimal sticky fingers. However, I wanted to add an additional warning with the contact cement & foam. It might be a good idea to use a respirator. Even outside, I almost injured myself. There must have been a chemical reaction between the foam & contact cement. Noxious fumes started eminating from the hat that could be smelled 4 ft away. Aired it outside for 3 days in the rain. The fumes finally ceased and I was able to continue the process. The hat turned out great!!

@LostWax 10 месяцев назад

Yes!! Definitely wear a respirator. This was one of my first videos and not long after that I switched to using hot glue for that very reason. Good reminder to update the description with a warning, thanks!!

@bio0link 10 лет назад

Just Found your channel randomly. I love creative makers like you Subbed.

@WinEntity 10 лет назад

Looks better up close where you can see the rivets; from a distance it looks a little messy. This is probably because the hat looks the same on all sides. Perhaps one might pick up a few plastic cogs or other steampunk-style objects, paint them in bronze/gold paint, and affix them to the hat? It would break up the monotony of the hat's appearance, and add some extra flair.

@seansamurai1981 9 лет назад

I'd just like to say, I love your guides. Really helpful and fun to watch. Used the top hat guide and put my own flare to it, literally. Thanks. :)

Just done with my hat! I'm pretty satisfied I must say. Finished it with 3 different colors of rub'n'buf (Inka Gold) - first with copper, then highlight with some gold and lastly just a few touches of silver on the edges :) Have a picture on my onedrive for those who would like to see -> 1drv.ms/1RMaizd

@RoseKindred 10 лет назад

@Doodle_Dunce 4 года назад

Tried to make this without half the materials and didn't buy the pattern. It came out really well! Asymmetrical but that's more fun. I painted it all copper and added a black wash instead, then some oxidisation effects

@LostWax 4 года назад

nice!

@masaakitakamoto4329 8 лет назад

I like such one wonderfully! I was moved! I'm a Japanese college student! I'll make this time, too!

@Turtletee25 10 лет назад

I'm really liking your stuff Chris, my hat is well underway and those cool goggles are next. Love the leather look for the craft foam too. Trouble is that the shop I went to in Melbourne only had double size mats in non textured foam so I hope you can help me use it all up with some more steampunk designs, a military style pith helmet would be super,

@LostWax 10 лет назад
