Swashbuckling Musketeer Hat DIY

thanks to you i plan on making a larp cosplay of a rogue/ ranger using your vids to make stuff for it.

Kit the haberdasher.

The hat's previous owner "died suddenly", and the last thing he heard was your character saying he'd wear the pirate's hat everywhere so people would remember.

Thats awsome bro

Lovely result, sir.

Ah, good. You've discovered how to draw an ellipse with pins, a loop of string, and a scribing tool. Extra points for figuring out how to make it intersect the axes at the desired points.

Grab a second hand hat or dollor store hat to cut up... the physics behind curveture,bend and slope to various shaped tops is rewardingly educational and cheap templates

The hat is Mother's Ruin

You might have a touch of the tism my friend

I totally understand your pain with getting hooked on drawing ovals or whatever the task at hand is. I've been there sooooo many times.

Finally! I've been looking for such a tutorial on how to make a hat like this. Now all I have to do is get to work haha

Those are the roundest ovals. They look a whole lot like circles. Maybe it is the camera angle

F for the gin bottle

A little constructive criticism - that background music gets REAL grating after a while because it's so repetitive. I couldn't finish the video. The hat looks great, tho!

These are the times Im reminded Clever is not a machinist or a Tradesman, love you tho!

I recently came up with a solution for making the templates if you dont have a hat to measure from, wrapping wire around your head and transferring it to the material.

Junilarper? Lol😉

Hi, I really enjoy watching your videos, and It made me try to recreate some of your creations.
So I wanted to ask if it would be possible for you to make a video on making a kilt (if possible maybe one with pockets(I know it isn't really traditional with intcrated pockets, but they are practical)), the videos and instructions I could find where not really detailed, and trying to follow them, wasn't working.
If it isn't possible, no worries, or if you already have a video similar to it, I would be very thankful if you could guide me to that one.
That would be all. Thank you for making those videos they are a joy to watch.

There's glass everywhere... too excited... 😂 I'm glad you kept that in.

next time...drink your OVALTINE!?!?! :P --> hat name... ovaltine :)

You look more like a Mexican bandido than a musketeer

Propper way to stiffen the hat is steam and starch (well historically mercury and steam)

not a milliner, but according to auburn leathercrafters:
"Hat bands serve both practical and decorative purposes. You can use them to help make your hat fit better on your head. They also can keep the hat from getting misshaped."

Gareth duped a pirate by cheating at poker(or similar gambling), and now he is always concerned when entering certain areas for fear of running into this pirate again

Why wax thread with leather? What would happen if you used regular thread?

Go with Ginuper cause your character is drunk and dyslexic

I dub the hat the tap-paulin (tarpaulin is the name of the tarred hat worn by sailors, not just tarps. And tap because drink)

In the summer, you will be a real hot head. I had a waxed canvas one that was a real sauna. Even fur felt is hot in the winter during activity. You could add an ostrich plume.

Historically, Archers secured their extra bow strings as a hat band for if their bow strings fail during hunting and/or wars.

Needs feathers. Look up 16th century Landsknect hats.

I love the story that developed after the addition of the kraken button! Awesome work, again!

That's a fantastic hat!

You should make a backpack that has a canopy and could turn From a canopy to a SMALL tent slash rest point for a trader

Junifier sounds pretty cool

This reminds me of Twisted Fate from LoL tbf

Hat bands are important structural feature (or were at least), they reinforce the most stressed part of the hat to help it keep it's shape. Importantly the hat-band material should always be more resistant to stretching than the hat material, hence leather or silk on felt/structured fabric/straw hats, braided or heavier leather on leather hats. The band stops the hat material from moving too much to conform to your dome.

Been quite interested in making a hat like this with a flop brim. Much like in Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead.

ah, Cl3ver: taking 'Kit-Bashing' to entirely new and ridiculous levels never imagined by mere mortals (pun intended)

I’m no hat pro, but maybe, just maybe, add some holes for ventilation?

I'm currently forging a rapier and I want a musketeer hat to go along with it, so I searched how to make one and this video popped up, uploaded 4 days ago! Perfect timing Skill Tree!

I love to see you make your own fantasy style leather shoes I think it would be a interesting episode for you to make as well

I’m surprised you didn’t add pockets or some other alternate functions to it. Seriously though, it looks great.

The fold goes on the side of your sword hand. So the brim doesn't get in your way of sword wielding

dude, you're the best!
I live in Russia and do LARP games. I am inspired by you! Thank you

Not to be an a-hole but... would have "printing out a perfect oval" worked for the "how to get the perfect oval" desaster?

Love your chanel! My kind of creative, my kind of crazy.
