Nice Garrett. Did you see mine while you were there?

 

[bowlerman]

Garrett, the refurbs look absolutely stunning. top to bottom overhauls?

 

[Garrett]

Yep! Re-block, 2 1/8" NOS Borsalino ribbon, new sweat and liner. Bob is an artist

 

[mikespens]

Yep. Nice results Garrett and looking forward to seeing the others you left with Bob.

 

[Garrett]

Mike, you'll like the blue velour I left with him. Ask him to show you what we're doing with that one!

 

[mikespens]

Will do Garrett, I have a nice Montecristi in for a re-block. I did see your Vicuna and will protect your reputation by not revealing what it is now It's conversion could be considered blasphemy by some but I'm in agreement with you that it's better worn in your style than hiding in a nice hat case.

Churchill "Beaver 100 made with Vicuna" refurb. Bob really knocked this one outta the park.

 

[splintercellsz]

[Garrett]

And the bronze velour Bob did an amazing job on:

2 beauties there, Garrett!

It was literally my good fortune to meet Garrett and his wife today at Bob's. Besides Garrett's beautiful conversions Bob also had my new Montechristi I was fortunate enough to score from Ale. It ended up too small so a re-block was in order as well as a new sweat and custom pug.

As received from Ale:


And after Bob's hand:

 

[Garrett]

That one turned out great, Mike. I'm looking forward to seeing what becomes of the new straw project. Was great to meet you!

Thanks, Harv. The Vicuna was a particularly difficult project but Bob delivered big time!

 

[ManofKent]

That's nice work

Hey, you local guys need to leave the poor man alone so he can get some work done for us out-of-towners!

Aaron, both Garrett and I are guilty as charged but Bob is turning out the work. Got to see several orders in progress including one ready to ship. I feel fortunate to have Bob near by and his passion for his craft is infectious.

Garrett - Bob has been doing some great work on your renovations

Mike - super job on the Monte. I have an Aureliano Montecristi myself and looking forward to getting it out again. Seems a long way off at the moment

I had a great chat with Bob on Friday by phone, and I can only imagine that he's even more fun in person, so I don't blame you at all.
