Group, I'm starting on the door build project on my somewhat modified
MkIII and could use a little input as far as piano hinge selection.
I see a lot of variety as far as extruded vs formed, pin size, etc.
Also would like to be able to pull the hinge pin if I want to leave
the doors off.
Replies off list would be appreciated.
Thanx, BB

I have two sets of doors on my MKIII, a regular set and a "summer set," that
are partially cut away about even with the upper thigh. To make it easy to
swap them out, I use ordinary 1/16" welding rod for a hinge, bend the upper
end in a little loop so you can grab it with needle noses. The standard
hinge is too hard to put in and take out, and it is not a particularly
stressed area. For the same reason, don't bother with the extruded hinge,
unless you just like to spend money.

Forgiving is tough, being forgiven is wonderful, and God's grace really is amazing. |
