@

@angeloc38425 months ago This country need more of these craftsmen. If we want to survive the next 300 yrs
@

@drk321last year People that create things from their hands are superior. This is a human endeavor. Not someone typing on a keyboard or following the stock market. When everything caves in and collapses, craftsmen/women will have skills which are useful. Hunt, build, grow, create will win over code, blog, vlog, trade, buy, sell. ... 3
@

@vernontorrence4407last year Yessir. We need more people to work with their hands and provide things people need. Kudo's to you. I wear a cloth hat but still really appreciate seeing this. A good day to you sir.

@

@rwfwcfii439last year Great craftsmanship. If it’s tremendously technical it shouldn’t require “feel,” just following the specs. You’re more artist than technician!
@

@maddoxswann9760last year Great hats. Love the craftsmanship and the pride you take in your work, but why did you say “approximately 48% of my time.” Sounds like you know exactly how much time. Love your videos.
@

@missourimongoose8858last year My dad owns a hat company (cap america) and we found a bunch of these wooden head molds when we cleaned up the factory a few years ago so my brother and I tried to make our own cowboy hats and let me tell you it's alot harder than it looks lol ...
