RSSSolar hat fan keeps you cool
This baseball hat has a solar panel on top and DC motorized fan on the front with a nice ventilation hole cut in the bill. Very handy for a summer day or also useful for walks through well lit bakeries if you want the full aromatic experience.

That link seems to be a wholesaler.
Does anyone actually sell these retail?
More to the point, since that this is MAKE--
how would you cut the hole in the hat, without leaving a ragged edge?
Would a hole-saw work?
