Hello everyone! I don't want to hijack Shane's thread here but I'm re skinning his doors for him and making some hinges as well so I thought this would be the best place to show how I made them.
The hinges are probably quite hard to find but not too bad to make if you've got the tools. I had 2 pieces of 30mm blocks and milled a hole through the centre giving me 2 half round dies. The pin is 1/4" so I welded the pin to some plate to use as the former in the press.
