September 15, 20187 yr comment_159951 Here is a pictorial of how to make a wooden hinge, I am not a professional,I think this is the common way to do it. someone mentioned that it was above their skill level, so I thought I would just submit the way I do it. There are all kinds of ways a person can cut the hinge,i.e. like a leaf,or a spear etc. to dress it up. Herb Report

Show-off Took me longer to read it than it did for you to make it and it's mostly pictures. I guess I need to build a barn now BTW, Thanks for the tutorial...this would be great in the Tips Section too.! Report
September 15, 20187 yr comment_159981 Herb, I have made wooden hinges in the past and I went to your post to see how a professional does it compared to my hap-hazard style, and the whoopee gods done removed yours . Now I'm lonesome and crying.... Report

September 15, 20187 yr comment_159999 Thanks Herm for the tutorial. You made it look easy. I did find brass hinges for my box, but I'll know how to make wooden hinges in the future. Edited September 15, 20187 yr by It Was Al B Report

I would like to see it after it has the finish on it. Herb Report
September 15, 20187 yr comment_160014 Herb, I hope you don't mind I cleaned up this topic, relocated your initial intent to the top of the topic, and deleted the remarks about images and how to upload. Now we just have content related to your beautiful hinges and how to make. Thanks for your patience sir. Report
