2019 - Shaping A Western Hat With Our New Steamer - Part 1

We have recently acquired a new steamer and the difference we're seeing in how we can quickly & efficiently shape hats, is remarkable. Craig Strein has been shaping hats for over 49 years and he knows just a thing or two about hats! (And I had a LOT of questions to ask so sit back, relax and learn a little more about shaping YOUR western hat!)

Cheers. How much it'll cost a boiler steamer, in 2022? ( where can I buy them, what stores, what's the price??)

[@Crookedroadpodcast]

about three years ago a new would would hit your door for about $3500 - used went for $1500-2k. Todays price? God only knows.
