MagicHat - 9 - Building the hat

22 Apr 2015

In this post, I will talk about the building of the hat.

To build the hat, I first created a model with a thick sheet of paper. This is easier to cut and to work with. I cut the thick paper with common scissors until I got the desired shape.

With this model, I proceeded to cut the PVC film the MagicHat will be made of. The PVC film is a good compromise between the flexibility required to make the hat look "human"

Finally I placed a baseball cap inside the hat to make it more comfortable to wear

    amgalbu, for some reason your post appeared under the 'Design Challenge' blog in stead of the 'Enchanted Objects' blog.

    You can move it by going to your blog post, press Edit, and select a new location at the bottom of your post.

     

    Nice hat. Does it balance ok when you wear it?
