ROFL  I have been debating the chin strap for about 3 days!!!!  I think he has one...particularly because of the angle of the hat but then I thought no..then yes...then no!  You tell me if you want a chin strap and I'll put it in!

Bouquets to Caz and Poll. :o....as a newcomer to restoration..only now can I fully appreciate how committed you are and how many hours of work you both put in to achieve this kind kind of result....if you were paid by the hour...you would be "Quids in"...Well Done both of you!
