The craft, process, or industry of manufacturing caps and head coverings.
Gerund form of capmaker, combining 'cap' and 'making' (from Old English 'macian', to construct or build).
Capmaking was a surprisingly complex trade requiring knowledge of felt-making, blocking, and stiffening techniques—it wasn't just plopping fabric on a head.
