Craig Staker custom makes hats and made a 100% beaver silver belly for me and is making one for Mary also. He has a shop in Farr West, Utah. As you can see it is decorated with some original western memorabilia, including two wagon wheels passed down through his family that are off the wagon that his ancestors traveled from Ohio to Utah in the 1840s. I can’t say enough good things about Craig and his sidekick, Billy. Their hospitality towards a couple of drop ins from Minnesota and Craig’s willingness to make me a hat while we were in town was very much appreciated.
