A simple "Baldwin" type cabinet hinge
-
I needed a nice cabinet hinge recently. I found a couple of things that didn't quite suit me, so I made my own. Here it is for anyone that might be interested. Modelled after a standard Baldwin cabinet hinge that measures 1-11/16" x 2-1/2". I also found a decent piano hinge at the 3d warehouse, that needed to be reduced, altered, and reworked, if anyone is interested let me know and I will post that also.
Note: If you look under the finial you will find two cross-hairs (the pivot point of the hinge). I use that to pivot one leaf of the hinge or the leaf and a door.
Best,

Very nice, Peter. That could come in handy. Adding the cross hairs is an excellent idea.
You'll never come unhinged again.
