What'd you use for brim and crown wire? I have the plans for this and was thinking of trimmer line but didn't know if it would be stiff enough.

14 gauge  electric fence wire, it is what i had handy

Great work my friend!  I think the crown not being inverted is what may be bugging you. 

That is exactly what the problem is.  I wanted the lace stitching to bee seen ,Fashion over form

So I corrected the problem and I am ok with the look,

Yep, I like it!

I like the original one best,,, as dieselpunk style. The second one doesn’t look dieselpunk as much. IMO.

Sure the crown on the first one is a bit wonky,,,,but in dieselpunk ,,,, a lot of the style is wonky.

nice work, just the same!

I like hats and have been thinking about doing one.  I like this one too.  I haven't decided on which one to start.

What as unique looking hat, really wonderful!

I like the second one better, the crown on the first did look off to me too, but then, I'm more traditional. 

Very nice.

I like it although it would be too hot for me to wear except in the dead of what we call winter.
