Men's Vintage Wood Millinery Hat Block Mold Form - Adjustable Без бренда
Характеристики
Up for auction is a men's vintage wooden hat form mold to shape and steam the crown of a hat.
Even though the mold has a split it still retains it's functionality. The mold stands approx 12" high and has a outer circumference of 20 1/2" without the slats and 22 1/4" with all the slat inserts.
I've tried this on one of the hats I own and it worked great. It made a perfect round dome on the crown. See last photo -
I've had a couple questions regarding how to keep the dome and slats together without it falling apart. When I used it, I used a large thick rubber band around the base up about 2" from the very bottom of the base. That worked great.
Had I decided to keep the hat form I was going to drill a sideways horizontal hole through the dome and slats and fashion a wooden dowel to go through so as to hold them all together.
The other idea I came up with was to position the dome inside of a metal canister of some sort like a metal coffee can or something it would fit in to hold it together.
I'm lowering the Buy it Now price for a 3rd time now so as to move this item along. I sell things I decide not to keep because I need the money, not necessarily because I want to give up the object I'm selling.
If you have any questions please feel free to ask.
Good luck bidding and thank you for visiting my no reserve auction.
