Blocking a hat is only half the job — the finishing tools at the bench are what turn a blocked shape into a wearable hat. Formillionaire’s millinery hand tool range covers the small, specific tools a hatter reaches for constantly: pushers and pullers for working felt into a crown’s detail, tollikers for smoothing and shaping brim edges, brim curlers for setting a curl at a specific height, and a brim cutter for trimming excess material cleanly.
Small Tools, Big Difference
None of these tools are complicated shapes, but getting the exact profile right — a toolliker’s foot radius, a curler’s height, a pusher’s edge angle — is what makes the difference between a tool that helps and one that fights you. Being 3D-printed files means the geometry is exact and repeatable every time you print a replacement.
