The plan was to just get a new white Starter-brand "Dri-Star" cap (my previous one is getting a little nasty-looking despite washing) and sew the NEST Global Alliance patch that came with the Bumblebee/Soundwave two-pack onto it. But this year's version of the Dri-Star caps has a much larger Starter logo embroidered into the front, and it's too big for the NEST patch to cover. And it's stitched through the whole way, so I couldn't just rip a few stitches and remove a patch. So out came the Dremel, I found that the sander head worked best (after trying the wire brush and cutter wheel first), sending fuzz all over the place and stripping out stitches at a high rate. Once I'd cleared enough of the original embroidery off, THEN I could sew the NEST patch on. I figure that counts as kitbashing as much as anything else. :)
