Dadio Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 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.

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.! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smallpatch Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 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.... HARO50 and p_toad 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Morris Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 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.
