So, can I start a new thread now?

It’s time for another hat!

As with the last iteration of Tarckhat, I’ll take care of the logistics including the upfront payment for production and you’ll pay me. David will handle design with your highly valued input. He gets a free hat, same as last time.

I liked my hat from last year but I’m open to suggestions on vendor. Cost is dependent on vendor but will include postage + materials + a small additional amount so I can cover costs for sending to Australia and Europe.

The first step is to agree on a design, so go ahead and give David your ideas. He has last word on the design.

Lol, I was just teasing ferg. Def not in for toile. Well maybe now that I think about a tarck toile. Something that looks like a normal scene at a glance but up close each is a cleverly drawn scenique containing objet d’tarck. The action is what sells these so it would have to be exquisite.

The color blades and fade could be troublesome cost and otherwise. I’ll think about how to incorporate it into a limp brim and post some crude mockups if I feel strongly.

I agree the plastic stiffeners are no bueno. I have made a few caps using thick interfacing. You can make a pretty stiff brim that is still flexible enough to resist damage.

Tarck brim should be springy for optimal planing.

I prefer the non-limp brim, but can be flexible. Double Darn is great, but probably a bit $$ for this kind of thing. Walz is fine, but can we get normal cotton material instead of that weird nylon/poly/whatever material?

I like the sizing and price with waltz caps. My double darn soft like kitten hat is too damn small.

Yo, the rothera caps are a good middle ground ATMO, the brim is stiff but more chub then ham and the organic cotton is thin rather than freedom thicknessway.

I’ll go with whomever–Walz is $12.50 per cap for 50+, Rothera is $17.50.
