I have a drawing in my sketchbook that I keep coming back to, it is a top hat entirely made out of copper pieces riveted together. In my mind it is such a glorious creation, but in reality it does present a number of problems, one which is the weight of the finished hat....  So, in a frenzy of cardboard, glue and Rub N' Buff, I slapped this little baby together.  I guess the only problem with frenzies is sometimes you make mistakes. So I now have a very cool hat that is somewhat too small for my head, and somewhat too large for my wife. Ah well, it will still look great on the shelf.

Stay tuned if you would like to know step by step how I made this wondrous creation....
