Yay! I saw Adam's posting about his 5 year old daughter and tools that fit her...I'm so glad she will be getting that cool little hammer! Great choice Tony!
@@adamrasmussen6087 Lol...that is so wonderful! You should consider doing a reaction video when she gets the hammer. I'm sure we could all use a smile these days...
Have all the pieces cut and holes punched. Thank you for answering questions so quickly. It looked complicated but watching this video really makes it easy to cut and sew.
Truly inspirational tutorials Tony. Not only do you have a fantastic presentation to your style. You have a wonderfully dry sense of humor. What can I say, educational and entertaining.
Just completed my flat cap and am very happy with it. The instructions were good without boring me to tears. One point I would make is when you are shaping the bill, make sure the grain side is facing down as this is really the only part you will see.
Yes agreed about Tony's choice for the tiny hammer. I commented about it for my ten year old because she's a fan and started her own leather craft business but glad to hear that it's going to an even younger kid!!! Way to go Tony and keep up the fantastic work.
This is a very nice looking hat, and pattern. I imagine how much easier it would have been years ago, had I found your videos. Now I watch them for entertainment and to learn how to teach my daughter. Thank you
Congrats to Adam's Daughter and I will definitely be getting this pattern this week, be a good use for some of the lighter weight leather I have. Thanks again Tony !!!
Just finished making this hat. I like it. I can't believe that I actually made it. Looks good too. The video definitely helped and gave me hope. Thanks Tony!! Have a wonderful day. Cheers from Montreal. 😎
Lovely hat. Distinctly Tony! Innovative pattern too. Congratulations to the future leatherworking competition on her newest tool that fits her hand! I have small hands so I know how important it is to find hammers and tools that don't make your hands hurt from being too big or heavy to use comfortably.
FIRST… Tony, thank you! This was definitely my most challenging leather project yet, and thanks to your outstanding pattern and video tutorial I was able to complete it no problem! PRO TIP: when punching the holes, in order to easily reference the visor end holes on the band, I used a diamond stitching iron to make those two holes instead of my round punch. This made lining everything up during construction very easy. Thank you again, Tony!
Thank you Tony. I just bought the pattern on etsy. I'm going to try and make this out of buffalo. You do great work on your patterns. Make this hobby so easy for use new to it.
Bought the pattern. Worked out pretty well. The wife likes it, and that's the main thing. Didn't see the size of the stitching punch before making the hat though. I usually use a home made pricking iron which is great for wallets but made the fold over part harder than it needed to be... punch set is in the mail.
8:27 Stole the words right out of my head. I was JUST going to comment how this project is perfect for lazy ppl or procrastinators because you still have a sweet leather visor if you stop. 😃👍
Tony, I've made a few of your patterns and they are outstanding. Even if they weren't, I think your amusing mannerisms would still sell me on your patterns. Thanks for what you do.
LMAO "We're making a hat. We're not trying to make a helmet here." I laugh because I made the 8-panel Newsboy hat with the only chrome tanned leather I had at the time and it was 6-7 oz. It was SO hard to stitch but I got it and it "looks" perfect. Problem is, I actually asked friends if they wanted a Newsboy hard hat. Listen to Tony because he knows best and makes perfect patterns! Just bought this pattern this afternoon so I'm excited to get started.
I bought this pattern on etsy, I didn’t know about the you- tube channel. The pattern is perfect! In combination with the video- tutorial it’s amazing. I made this hat for my Dad, and it turned out beautiful (the sizes are absolutely exact). I’m looking forward to try my hands on more of your projects. It‘s clear to see how much work and love of detail you put into this. Thank you.
I got into leather work over the summer holidays and this is the most serious project I’ve done. It taught me a lot of new stitches and I’m so happy with how it turned out.
Tony, just finished the second Newsboy Hat for my daughter-in-law and granddaughters and they are ecstatic! Now I will get started on the Flat Cap. You are so creative and awesome! My family love you and your creations! Thank you.
Thanks Tony, This was the first pattern that I purchased but finished things for others for christmas. I made this for me in about 9 hours on Christmas day (3pm to midnight) and it was quite straight forward. a custom haf with your choice of thread and leather for under $20CAD. You can't beat that.
Just finished this project. Pattern was easy enough to follow. I am looking forward to doing a few variations with different color leather and thread combos. Thanks again Tony and keep bringing us more amazing content
Just finished my first one of these. One detail to note: you use the corner holes on the bill twice. Once to connect the bill to the sweat band, and then again when you attach to the top. It's a little tricky to see in the video. Fantastic pattern.
Thank you Tony, hats speak to my heart...this style is a fave...I truly appreciate your patterns, the tutorials and most certainly, YOU....thanks again.
I'm a new subscriber and also new to leather crafting. This has given me hope. I have so much leather and tools but don't know what to make. I recently purchased this pattern and the ladies handbag pattern. I have hats like this but made of fabric. If I can pull this off it will be great. Thanks for the knowledge and the laughs.
Hey Man, You are just FANTASTIC. I've discover your Youtbe chanel yesterday, and I can get away from loking all your works THANKS so MUTCH for your contribution. Multumesc mult With Best wisches of France
Hi Toni, first of all, thank you very much for your great videos and your really good patterns. I like your style and the extraordinary leather work you share with us. I tried my hand at the flat cap (in Germany we call it Schiebermütze) and downloaded the pattern. And as you say in your video: "The last stich will be the hardest". It was like that, I redone it 2 times. But I think the result turned out okay. Next I will try my hand at the steampunk vest and look forward to the videos and ideas from you that are still come. Thanks from Germany, Mike!
Hey tony I really love you work.. I just started leather crafting and wanted to get into designing my own patterns.. how about a video on how you design your bag patterns.. really appreciate it thank you!
Absolutely love your videos. You make so many amazing things. I really hope I am this good someday. I think I make pretty good stuff. But to be able to make things this good would be awesome.
I have been looking for this style of Cap recently, and can't find one I like. I have also been thinking about what my next leather work project might be, when I came across your video. I am now looking forward to making myself a cap. Thanks for sharing all this, and for supplying the pattern. Liked and subscribed. Paul UK
Two questions: 1. Did you edge coat the pieces of the grey version? 2. Did you add an accent layer to the underside of the brim on the brown one? Off to order leather now!
Dear master...tell me what preferred skin is needed?...I mean the thickness can be in " mm " or " oz " ...I did not find what thickness to work with...thank you for the pattern, I am Your long-time admirer...thank you for your answer....
Hi Tony, I just bought the pattern, and I'm now waiting to be accepted in the FB group. In the meantime, I have a question before I can start. I see in the files that L would be size 59 (cm) and M would be 57 (cm) if I get it right. My size is 58cm (from an existing cotton cap). So my question is: should I take the M and suppose the leather will extend a little bit overtime or, should I take the L with the risk that it will be "floating" on my head? Thank you for your answer and, many thanks for the great RUclips videos. Cheers.
I have bought several hat patterns from Tony and they are all awesome. BUT, I would like to make this hat as a gift for a friend of mine. He has A huge head. 65cm!!! I was wondering if it is possible to get this pattern in that size.
I definitely will try to make this, wanted to make my own for a long time. One question, is there a reason why you use very little glue in almost all your videos?
Quick question. Should I seal the inside of the sweat band (with like RTC or something) or leave it natural? I felt like the beeswax would stick to the skin, but if I left a natural then the sweat would be more absorbed and potentially discolor it? Thoughts?
This looks simple, which leads me to believe I have fundamentally misunderstood something. Nothing is this simple. I am considering starting leatherwork & landed on this as a project to do. Is it something a total beginner can do?
Purchased the patterns. Measured my head. Ordered leather. I think I made a mistake on the leather. In the US, Chrome Tanned Leather is often called Oil Tanned leather. Chrome Tanned leather is thinner for clothing and such. And not in the weight suggested (4-5 oz). Using the patterns on Veg Tanned leather is fine. Masking tape sticks to it with no problem. Oil Tanned leather repels any kind of tape. I begrudgingly got around this by using clear packing tape on the flesh side of my Oil Tanned leather. It stuck enough so I could punch the holes and cut out the pieces semi accurately. I have never purchased Chrome Tanned leather so I probably made a mistake. I will sew up the pieces that I cut and see what happens.
Hi Tony, How many hours does it take you to get a patter perfect. Do you do mock ups in leather or do you card stock to make sure the pattern is perfect.
Hi Tony, I want this to be the first hat I make, and I have some Suede I would like to use. Would the Suede be suitable and easy to use for this pattern? I have a firm natural veg tan kangaroo leather for the sweat band and brim (front bill). Thank you.
Yay! I saw Adam's posting about his 5 year old daughter and tools that fit her...I'm so glad she will be getting that cool little hammer! Great choice Tony!
same!
Thanks guys. She's excited! She giggled at the way Tony said our last name.

Gracias por compartir tu información
Have all the pieces cut and holes punched. Thank you for answering questions so quickly. It looked complicated but watching this video really makes it easy to cut and sew.
After I made this hat I received more compliments than from any other item I have made. The pattern is simple and easy to make. Very happy.
@mike Kratz, do you find the hat warm to wear? Surely much warmer than material. Too warm?
I just made this for my youngest son and this tutorial was super easy to follow. The pattern is tightly designed and easy to stitch.
I just finished my second one of Tony's Flat Caps. I am always blown away by the perfect execution of Tony's designs! Tony, thank you so much!!

Well, I was always afraid of making caps and hats so I never did but seems like I am going to start.
Another killer pattern! you're keeping me busy in my workshop, I love it!
Congats Adam! Awesome gift Tony... very cool
Very nice project. Before I buy the patern I’d like to know if there will be any problem if I make all the project with vegtan leather.
This is such a work of art! Impressive, really well executed!
Thanks Tony! I've been asking you for one of these ever sense you put out the Newsboy cap!
Two questions: 1. Did you edge coat the pieces of the grey version? 2. Did you add an accent layer to the underside of the brim on the brown one? Off to order leather now!
where we can download pattern for this cap
Beautiful work and tutorial. Thank you for sharing.
Great give away and awesome hat!
Just finished making this hat
Congratulations! Excellent Pattern!

Beautiful designs and patterns.

So smart that you never used the flatcap pattern in the tutorial...LMAO professionals should find their way out.
Big Thanks sire
Outstanding Tony, going to enjoy making these for sure. Thank you Sir :)
I trust you Tony! Let’s stitch away!!
I definitely will try to make this, wanted to make my own for a long time. One question, is there a reason why you use very little glue in almost all your videos?
Excelente trabajo y me inspira para seguir con la marroquinería. Gracias Mónica desde Colombia
This incredible sir is..incredible!
yeah! bought it. paid for it! yet notta! been at this an hour now so guess ill just cut losses and move on!! i tried!
Woops, I see now that in the M file there would be a 58cm, am I correct? Just learning to know how you work.... Thanks. Alain.
AWESOME hat again! Next up to Tony’s Page & buy the patten! Can wait to start the build!
That man I married wants this cap. It's a good pattern.
Tanna Eros you can buy it soon on Esty under DreamWarriorsDesign
Quick question. Should I seal the inside of the sweat band (with like RTC or something) or leave it natural? I felt like the beeswax would stick to the skin, but if I left a natural then the sweat would be more absorbed and potentially discolor it? Thoughts?
I love you. No homo but i love you for all this tutorials and patterns
This looks simple, which leads me to believe I have fundamentally misunderstood something. Nothing is this simple. I am considering starting leatherwork & landed on this as a project to do. Is it something a total beginner can do?
Brilliantly desinged pattern
Esse É um Verdadeiro ARTESÃO, que trabalho LINDO, É um MESTRE com muito TALENTO!!! Aprendi muito !!!
Child labour is how we start... beautiful Tony
Child labor .... you crack me up. Thanks, and I need a cap.

Hi Tony, How many hours does it take you to get a patter perfect. Do you do mock ups in leather or do you card stock to make sure the pattern is perfect.
I like the needles you use .What sizes are they?Can I get them on Amazon?
You are funny and fantastic :) Thank you for your tutorials :)
Hey Tony! Great Design!!! But you can please also insert child sizes? 🥴
mulțumesc, faceți mult mai multe design-uri de top de top, ca întotdeauna. mult apreciat
I really want those long needles you use, which are they?
Need your help Tony. I've used the 56 cm headband but it's too tight. Can I use the 58 cm and still use the rest of the hat?
Hi Tony, I want this to be the first hat I make, and I have some Suede I would like to use. Would the Suede be suitable and easy to use for this pattern? I have a firm natural veg tan kangaroo leather for the sweat band and brim (front bill). Thank you.
Again amazing thank you Tony.
Hola Tony, me podrias decir como calculo el largo del hilo que necesito para cada tramo? Saludos
Hi Tony, Making this hat now but is the band a cross stitch and is the cros on the inside? Can really see that i the demo.
My neices love when I work with leather. It's super cool of you to send the tiny hammer to that kid.
