Looking for a source

Featured Replies

My sister is at it again with the church fixtures.

 

I know better than to start a flat work project before locating hardware sources but I "assumed" (and you know what that means) that a miniature piano hinge would be easy to locate.

 

The thing I made is a "prayer box" with a lid slanted down at 10°. My plan was to hinge the top with an unstopped piano hinge. The stock is 3/8" thick. I can cut a continuous hinge to the correct length but I cannot seem to locate a hinge that has an open dimension of 3/4" or 7/8". The ones at Woodcraft are too narrow- if their specs are standard dimensioning, sent them an email for clarification.

 

Any sources information would be greatly appreciated. My Google searches are not being successful.

For some reason they will have to be cut/paste, sorry.

@Dadio Thanks!! The D Lawless site has it. I was there before but didn't click on the correct category.

 

I really appreciate the help. Saved me from a redesign now that all the pieces have been cut!
