Why we picked it
For shops running Melco machines with the Wide Angle Cap Frame, this video shows how to hoop a cap on that frame. Hooped the way it demonstrates, the cap can take a design spanning 270 degrees, which matters when customers ask for logos that run toward the sides of the cap. If you use another brand, treat it as background on cap hooping rather than step-by-step instructions, since the frame shown is Melco's.
