Nice hatbands. I particularly like the one on the grey (Stetson Buffalo Fur?) hat.

Thank you, it is going on a Serratelli beaver.  The grey u=is a Justin wool.

I am liking the hat bands as well 

Thank you

 

Made a hat clamp to be able to hang a hat in the car.

A magnetic hat clamp is a good idea. I may have to make one of that nature. I had a hat rack in my previous truck but my current one has stuff across the headliner that prevents putting a rack in it. Thanks for the idea.

 

The grey hat has a similar visual texture to a buffalo Stetson I have. Thanks for the clarification.

A couple suggestions on the hat clamp, use Neodymium N52 magnets or possibly N42 the others seem too weak, the clasp I am switching to a caribener bigger. 

Your welcome.

I am learning about hats as they are new to me, wore basebll caps all my life. Then had a scare with cancer on the back of my neck and cowboy hats looked like the ticket.

when spending long hours training outside, I wore a cowboy hat. They are a surprisingly good hat to go sweat outside it. Shouldn't be surprising though.

Somehow blocks out all the sky, without limiting vision.

Thanks for the tips on the hat clamp.

A good fitting quality hat can't be beat. Make sure to have one steamed to fit your head by someone in a good hat shop. You can forget it's even on.
