Cool tool...

There are so many wonderful tools out there. I thought I new about just close to all of them. But, I find so many interesting inventions that I am amazed and glad to find and use.

My latest find is this wooden tool made by hand which when placed inside a hat it stretches the hat to your likeing. I started collecting vintage fedoras. Most of them fit me fine, but 3 of them were a little to snug. So I did some research and found this amazing hand made hat stretcher. I paid $9 for it and it works like a charm.

It is interesting to note how many, if not all, tools were invented because of the need to make something work, or as in this case, fit. Most tools are not that complicated, but someone had to have the patience to invent it. I am grateful to those individuals since they make my life a little simpler...
