Members merlynn11 Posted May 30, 2011 Members Report Posted May 30, 2011 Hi there I am looking to mould vegitanned leather, and could use some know how. My goal is to be able to make a dome to go at the center of a hat, without having to sew the arch of the dome. Can it be done, and if so how? Quote
aparkes Posted June 5, 2011 Report Posted June 5, 2011 It can be done because people do it, but that's probably a question for a specialist. I've only seen hats being made once and they used a mold; I don't know if it's even possible to do it freehand. Quote

There are tutorials in almost every Forum, on the 1st page, generally 'pinned'. You might want to check the 'Patterns&Templates' in the Fabrication forum. Also, look in the Specialty Leatherwork forums. Post a pic or drawing of what type hat that you are looking to make. I'm sure someone here has the info you seek. Welcome.
