    I checked your site out. YOu have some nice stuff. Can I suggest plonking them on Etsy too?

    May I ask about your hinges?

    I'm curious about the hinges too. I've been using the SmartHinge, but it is expensive. What are you using for your boxes?

    cheers,

    Hello ajw and woodpixel,

    Thanks for your input. I have them on ETSY and EBAY....which has been pretty good. I have tried a few different brand of strap hinges, some good some not so good. Try the ones from the sand paper man, they are OK....it's all about setting up good jigs and fine tuning a nice tight fit with nice accurate joinery in the first place.....good luck.

    You know, people are always interested in the little details. Perhaps you could provide a few build pictures

    When you say the 'sand paper man' do you mean Veneer Inlay/Hardware for Creative Finishes? I Haven't been able to find any hinges on 'The Sandpaper Man' website.
