Small Hinges Required!!

[Pete Robinson]

I am in need of some small hinges for a small box with a hinged lid in the region of 130mm x 100mm x 170mm (w x d x h) I plan to use stock of around 8mm thick but am having difficulty in finding hinges small enough (butt or butterfly).

Can anyone point me in the right direction!!

Cheers

Pete

Small hinges are a problem as cheaper ones are so often absolute rubbish. If the box is worth it, then Brusso make the best small hinges but they are expensive. Classic Hand Toolssell them.

I buy a most of my hardware from http://www.richardbarry.co.uk or http://www.daro.com - I don't know about very small hinges, but the may be worth a look.

On this subject I have been trying to find a cheap supplier for cranked hinges - 50mm with 9/10mm offset as in this picture.

I can get them at retail hobby sellers, but I use quite a lot of them and would like to find a cheaper trade supplier. I'd be grateful for any suggestions.

Richard.
