Hello,
Which hinges and lid stay would people suggest please for a window seat? It will have a fairly heavy lid about 1300 wide and 600 - 650 deep. The seat height is going to be about 545 with about 4" of cushing on top. There is brass in the room ie curtain pole, so hoping for brass coloured to match. I thought I'd use birch ply for the lid. Design is yet to be finalised. I am thinking of MRMDF for the box and front. I had thought of a good quality piano hinge but have no idea regarding the stay, wish to do a good job. Any help is gratefully received, thank you.
I have found youtube a great recource especially 'Gid Joiner' and 'Peter Millard'.
