How to Shape the Brim of a Cowboy Hat

Hi I?m Dustin here, on behalf of Expert Village.com, here in Callister's. Now that I've done the crown, I?m going to show you how to shape up this brim hobby like. It?s real simple. There are basically two types of creases, the way I see it. There are two types of creases that you can do. One is a roll, as I like the color. It?s real simple. It?s what the name said. You hit it with steam, soften it up and basically you take your some place here at the points that you want to roll, take this two fingers here and we just kind of nice, gently, roll it. Now keep in mind, you want it to be nice and even on the face, I won?t take the time to show you, it will take a little bit longer, but I'll just nice, even roll. And I will get, so it?s a nice, gentle feel to it. Now the other one I'll show on the other side. This is why I'd like to call, I really have a name for it, but it?s kind of more harshier crease, it?s flat and then it comes out. It?s real simple how to do this one too. Once again you hit it with steam to soften it up and we take it, like so grab it again with the point you want to roll, put it against your stomach and just push with your stomach a little bit and you will get flat and then it comes out for a little more dramatic effect. Those are basically the two different that I see, the two different ways of doing creases.
