I was able to get about 2cm which is about 3/4 of an inch right? I think we
are talking about the same thing. Anything below that and you are out of
the "sew area" on the WACF.
I had noticed some hats we have seem to come about 1cm from the brim.
Honestly, for most items 3/4 is fine, but this was a large logo, and I was
curious if anyone had a "magic technique" for getting lower on the cap face.

I just finished a run of 4 dozen and my design starts 3/4" above the brim.
Are you trying to get closer than that?
I think I could have dropped mine down maybe another 1/4", but it looks good
at the height it is at.
