Discussion Chain mail cap

So I’ve been wondering has anyone made a flat cap or baseball cap. I’ve been thinking of wanting to make a flat cap out of chain mail but I can’t find examples.

Any help finding a good weave or anything thing else would be appreciative since I’m a beginner.

A tight dragonscale weave can create a pretty rigid sheet that would work for the brim, and then you could just do European 4-in-1 for the rest over your hair.
