    As of late, there has been a resurgence of interest in radio wave deflecting head-wear.
    The study here has motivated me to redesign the mousetrap for a better lifestyle fit tailored to me.

    I've done some impromptu redesign with reinforced lines and interior.
    The only caveat I have is that this (like most others)
    is actually an "Aluminum foil hat" as opposed to a "Tin foil hat".
    This may be the factor that is fudging with the results
    of original testing.

    With that said, I did not skimp with generic or weak foil.
    I went with the "Heavy Duty" Reynolds that clearly states
    "Quality" right on the label.

    Also, note that I remembered a previous tip
    that I found on RimfireCentral.com about these
    "Press here to lock ends" tabs that keep the roll
    from falling out of the box.

    I started by looking for a design idea,
    and decided that one factor that may be being
    overlooked is a deflective rim.
    I chose this for a model.

    Upon inspecting the construction and the labels,
    I noted that "Water repellent fur blend" may be useful in and of itself.
    So I decided to employ the whole unit instead of just using it as a model.
    *Disclaimer- if you're a touchy feelie type that would rather not
    use a real "fur blend", feel free to contact PETA for an alternative*

    For everyone else, if you'd care to get one of these for yourself,
    you have to contact this place in Ft.Pierce, FL.

    I started off by lining the interior in thoughts that a
    DOUBLE layer of "aluminum" might be as useful as real "tin".

    I deftly wrapped the foil around the brim (underside and topside)
    and then sealed in the loose ends by wrapping a strip folded in half
    (for double thickness) around the brim and over the top.

    Noting that some of the more well noted designs have an antenna,
    I figured it would be a good idea to create one that should also
    aid in jamming any signals that need interrupting.

    Since there wasn't an available extended area to
    utilize the antenna, I decided that it would be a good idea
    to use my existing ponytail, knowing that readjustments in
    location would be easier than any permanent attachment
    to my radio wave deflecting hat. Please be advised that
    reflective sunglasses will also prevent non-authorized retinal scans.

    I hope this step by step instruction will help others,
    and if it saves even ONE brain from being scrambled
    or force-fed government propaganda, it was all well worth it.

    You know, back in the days before cable, when everyone had rabbit ears, one way to improve your reception was to wrap tinfoil around the antenna. It's my considered opinion that the tinfoil hat just makes the brain control waves that much stronger. You should construct a cranial Faraday cage instead, perhaps using copper mesh.

    Sorry I'm not seeing where they say it can't be covered by anything else? Their helmets are all just over the skull too.

    Hey, I was just trying to save some foil! :)

    Always assume everything in life is on a point system.
    Points buy you karma. You know how when you're cruising up to a red light and it turns green before you start stepping on the brake and you sail right through? You had enough points to buy the karma green light.:D
