[QUOTE="pollyp, post: 534486, member: 4527"] all 4 brackets cut [ATTACH=full]28016[/ATTACH] was gonna tack some 1mm weld rod on the edge to form the hinge but was very tricky. either the weld didn't join or the weld simply burnt the rod off. could've spend all night recutting another alternative but instead i tried wrapping the tab around the rod like this and re-trim the clearances [ATTACH=full]38012[/ATTACH] the pivot hole will have to be repositioned [ATTACH=full]38013[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]38014[/ATTACH] so it slots like this. tbh there's not alot of metal round where the hinge pivots so may wear through and i would've either riveted a miniature piano hinge or remodelled/recut it all instead but meh, it'll do and cba with further work and buying the special bits and more dremel wheels etc [ATTACH=full]38010[/ATTACH] the bolt holes will be interfering with the ones on the side so they'll need shortening [ATTACH=full]38011[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
