    Default HELP...... circular hinges

    I'm having a senior's moment where the "moment" has so far lasted 2 days!
    Somewhere, in the last month or so, I have seen circular brass hinges which are installed by boring a shallow circular recess centred on the lid join. IIRC, they were about 30mm diameter and have an integral 90+ degree stop.
    Now, when I say I have "seen", this could have been on the forum or in a magazine and my only defence is that I wasn't interested ......at the time?
    I now need to make some boxes where polished brass fittings are to be a design feature.
    Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

    Thanks ej, that certainly sounds like it but Rockler currently off line (?) and I can't confirm yet.
