k thanks any tips if wanting to dye a hat with even brown color. would wool dauber be best or is something else better to use for keep wanting to learn

was getting ready to dye my leather hat & normally I dye when fully dye having a day or more to dry. Is these the best way to dye, I read on another site someone does it when leather is still damp not sure what dyeing the leather damp would do or how it would come out. So asking for any tips to dyeing that helps get the even coloring threw out the leather project?

very nice

on the wire for the brim did you hand sew or use sewing machine

if you have a better way for doing sizing on hat size for the answer that would be great for not sure mine is the best

no sure the best answer for sure are better ones, when I did it I meaured around my head where the brim would fit before adding the top of the hat

thanks

k thanks still learning so was not sure if belly could be name used for part of the hat, happy you said is belly part of the hide. did the curling of the brim come more from using the belly or did you do something to give more that look thought might try when do another hat. is binding hard to do on a hat would that be just wrapping it in leather & making the hat have a trim around the edge? thanks again for all the help like the idea

k did not even know had iron on my work space. will looking into the bleaching have to look to see what item is in store thanks & you did just the brim on the inside or underside with the leather n rich

thanks letting me see just hopping can do & not have to keep putting on not sure of one needs to do it every few months or if once on is good to go thanks again for the help

should I do when full try or damp & what does vaseline do to the leather never tried

looking great

k thanks will check it out

not fully finished yet 1st large mask trying to make.

like the idea of making the brim bend to any shape. are you looking at using leather or something like felt for the brim?

what part is the belly of the brim would that just be the middle & what did you find worked best to help keep the water from changing shape of the leather? thank you & yes a tough project. yes 1 piece crown thought would be easier for me. one you made looks nice, hope mine comes out nice looking once dyed. I see some speak of cleaning leather before dying is that something I should do, if so what should I use? very nice

how cool will have to try at some point

k thanks so just ask leather work questions in these topic area
