So you’ve designed and built the ultimate jewelry box or cabinet, and it is with some apprehension that you approach that final step, installing the hinges.
Metal hinges are a pain. Let’s face it. It’s not so much the hinge itself, it’s those darned brass screws. When you finally do get the pilot hole centered properly, the head of the screw is sure to twist right off during installation. It makes you wonder how many brass screw heads are actually glued instead of screwed in the hinge.
What’s the solution? Just combine your INCRA Positioner or I-Box Jig with the HingeCrafter drill guide and the results will be beautiful wooden hinges ready to glue right into your project.
