I love that part at the end where you break down what tools you used and what you actually needed.

That was sort of an accident, but thanks for the feedback, I liked it to and will probably stick with it from now on. I'm trying to make videos that I was looking for when I started armouring ... a little too long ago ... before youtube was started :)

I have no intention of ever making a hinge, so why did I just watch this entire video? I have no idea, but it was great!

I've recently started to make lighters and revisited this from a few years back. This type of hinge is the most durable I've found by far, jewelry hinges either require tubing or are on the weak side

he used his finger tip as a ruling guide. It's a simple technique used by people in various trades such as carpentry. Though if the metal had a sharp edge, he could give himself a nice cut at the tip of his finger.

I'm assuming piercing the work before forming is how they were made before people had incredibly powerful hand tools to mill out the hole?
@GreenleafWorkshop
@GreenleafWorkshop 6 жыл бұрын
You're likely correct. I've seen single and double layer hinges. But in both cases there are very, very thin to help punch through (I suspect).

That was a single prop light aircraft, not a helicopter btw. Some poor student pilot (who's shoes I've been in hundreds of times) was probably getting chewed out in it while we're all having fun learning to make a hinge. :P

Mde again.... Interesting you use a grinder to cut out. Have you done a time comparison with a saw and chisel?
@GreenleafWorkshop
@GreenleafWorkshop 8 жыл бұрын
I've used saws and chisels, but didn't time anything. I tend to use the grinder as it's simply closest and ready to go. My suspicions would be that the grinder is a bit quicker but needs more cleaning. I tended to cut out the hole with the chisel and then make the hinge rather than make the hinge then grind the hole though. I'll give it a practice and try the three techniques and see where I end up :)

HI there, most likely with chisels and files. They are surprisingly quick and with practice not far off the time it can take to use electric cutters (including clean up). I'll show it on a set of arms I have to make in the near future.

I can make them for you at various sizes and we can figure out a cost, but I don't think there is anyone just making armour hinges. Failing that modern hinges can be used, it just depends how much authenticity you are after. Also the hinges tend to have to be internal, so only the barrel can be seen or it is immediately obvious that the hinge is modern. www.screwfix.com/c/security-ironmongery/butt-hinges/cat840980
