Beautiful hinges and craftsmanship.
I will try to copy those hinges.

I like way you did the splines and the dowels at the end of them. the box is very nice and you nailed the hinges! Well done.

Very nicely done. I love the way those hinges look from the back.

Well done!

-- Dan ~ Texarkana, Tx.

That is so beautiful and innovative

Very cool ! Are the mechanics of the hinges held together with pins or are they stand alone like a
Roubo book stand?

I love the flush look of the wooden hinges. Great execution!

Now that is really nice.
The rebated hinges look great.
And it looks like you have about 100 degrees of opening. Or rather, how much do you have?

How’d ya cut the rebates?

Good job,
Steve

Sweet box and execution. The hinges really set it off as a high end custom work. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Question: if you cut the hinge rebates one TS blade thichness shy would there then be no gap?

I’ve put off trying wooden hinges because the traditional ones just looked well out of place to me. Now I have no excuse and will add to the “box” list. Great execution on a great design!
