wooden hinges
I have started a batch of boxes, most of them will be give aways.
Rather than use brass butts at $$$ per pair , made several wooden hinges a bit different to normal run of hinges, open out to just over 90 degrees.
230mm long x 34 wide 10mm thick , 2mm brass pivots with timber plug.
Timber white beech.
regards John

Good move ...self made is a good go........another cheap alternative are the slot or barb hinges...about $1 a box.
