How do you do with the propeller hat cap? How can you make a propeller hat?
THANKS!
This site is a model of the CAP cap. I do not know if the model has instructions for the propeller or not. Here's what I'd do ... Get reel of a child, remove and use the parts that spin the reel to turn your propeller. You can do the actual propeller cutting metal from a soda can that you spray painted the color of the hat.

The hat is not a real problem. Find the propeller would be the hardest part. The best place to start would probably be a hobby shop that sells model airplanes, etc. and see if you can get a propeller and parts from there to add to your hat.
The hat can easily be purchased or sewn at your choice. If you want to sew, my favorite model is called "Home Run Hat" Wood Lane Press and is an excellent model for adults and children. Here is their website: http://www.timtexstore.com/
Timtex is an excellent product for the banks. It is not as rigid as the bank has bought hats, but he did a good job.
