Thanks for your kind words Kent. When I made this video, there was only a couple others available...Rob's videos on the hinge with his process he learned from the man that taught him...and on on Pask Makes. To me, Pask's was a bit more "user friendly" and Rob seemed to want to sell his tool for drilling the holes in the dowel segments, which is fine with me as I'm a capitalist as well however, I don't like spending that much on a tool for such a singular purpose. I also found the "pins" technique to be harder to manage and weaker than my "single rod" method. I'm thinking of making another revised video on this because I've since developed a few techniques and changes than make it easier and, for me at least, easier.
I haven't watched the whole thing yet, but already put a thumbs up for you. I have watched a few other videos using the style of box hinge and so far you have shown things they have not.
Thanks so much for that. There was a lot I had to figure out on my own so I wanted to make sure to include much of that. I'm thinking about another video on what I've learned and developed since then.
Wow! After just watching some dude cut a dovetail joint in the most ridiculously complicated way imaginable THIS was super cool. Talk about adding a new dimension to your average box! Well done.
Very fine video, instruction, execution. I want to add, a great looking box. I would really love to see it after it’s finished. All told fantastic, thank you for sharing.
Thank you for sharing your methods. I enjoyed this. I especially liked how you showed the fine details of applying the glue, marking the dowel etc and explained why. It is these things which I find very helpful. It is often these details which separate a master from a competent woodworker. Thanks again.
Very nice work, got to show more though. Wanted to see back area closer where trough was. Great start for 1st video. Ill be watching more to support ya.
Good video dude. I appreciate your attention to adhesive containment. Also a full hinge pin provides a nicer alignment of the hinge pieces plus adds more strength to the hinge. Well done Sir.
An amazing compliment Rick...thank you very much. The changes I made were based on two things, postal service mishandling, and working with the tools I had on hand. Also, a lot of repetition.
Wonderful job. I've watched your working video, which I learned the way of making wooden hinges. Thanks I could see many details. I'll give it a try later and after success I'll call you teacher. And I could see your full looks. Probably almost in my ages? Please be happy with RUclips activity. Thanks again for your helpful video.
Thanks so much for watching and thanks for the compliments J. I really hope you'll give it a try. I'm very sure you can do it. And, I'm 49 years old...been working with wood since I was 12. Soooo long. And I still have all my fingers! :O
Well done for your first video! I've watched a few videos about making wood hinges, as others have said, I like this route. For one, it would be better suited for longer hinges and it takes out the pain of drilling long holes. Glue up looks a little tricky. One thought, before installing the rod, if you put wax on the rod, should be easier to put in the segments and a smoothly hinge action after you are done? Just thinking. It turned out very well. :)
Thanks for watching and for the feedback. Waxing the rod works just as you mentioned and in some cases, especially when the rods come a couple thousandths thicker than usual, it can be essential to just getting the dowel reassembled. The reason I don't do that unless I need to is that even the tightest rod fit makes for a smooth operation of the hinge due to the torque imparted into the center axis of the assembly itself once it's completed. However, it DOES get rid of most of any hinge squeak that might be there in the end. Also, I usually use Oddie's Oil for finishing the hinge itself inside the box and that also helps. I plan on making another hinge video pretty soon to highlight how my process has evolved...I hope you can look forward to that.
Mr Dean, I am in the process of trying to make a box like yours with the hinge and was thinking ahead of the process you use for the finish without causing the hinges to stick or get into some kind of a bind. Thanks so much and Happy New Year.
Hey Tom...I use lacquer inside and outside of the boxes now. I finish the inside surfaces, assemble the box, cut off the lid, and then lacquer the lid edges. Once those are finished, I cut the back edges for the dowel...this bares the wood for glue where needed for the dowel and prevents glue from sticking anywhere else. As for the hinge INSIDE the box that's only visible when opened, I use Odie's Oil for that.
Wow, that is very cool. With the dowels fitting so tight on the brass rod , I thought the glue joint might fail. How do you determine dowel size and segment length for different size/thicknesses? Is there a formula you use. I really like this. Excellent work.
Hey Mike...thanks so much. As to segment size...the limit is how deep I can drill without bit drift...I try not to exceed segment lengths longer that two inches. I use 3/8" dowels in Half inch thick material now...in the video the dowel is .5". I have no formulas BUT, your dowel needs to be equal to or less than your box's wall thickness to work properly.
I will watch this after work. Work (an extension of my job) is what my woodworking jouney turned into..🤦♂️ I mean it helps keep the ship afloat and the tool collection growing but,....
Thanks Richard! I take that was a HUGE compliment as I admire Mr. Cosman a lot. I guess it might seem that way because I've done a LOT of these hinges now and it just gets easier every time.
Hello there and thanks for watching. I test cut scraps for a couple reasons but mostly to verify the fence setting because that tells me how close to 90 degrees the hinge will open once completed. I like for my hinges to open just shy of 90 degrees so this setting is pretty crucial for my process.
Hi Roland. Have you ever tried to see if you can make an invisible hinge that didn't go all the way to outside of box. Sort of a stopped dado hinge. Is it possible? Have you ever tried making an invisible hinge with dovetailed corners?
Hey Mr. Rick. That actually doesn't really work. It won't work because the corners beyond the ends of the hinge are crashed in the closed position. HOWEVER, if you chamfered out from the hinge dowel on the lid and the bottom, it would no longer crash BUT, then you'd have a visible line.
YES you CAN use a drill press since a drill press is so very similar to a lathe, just vertical instead of horizontal. I used a technique once with the press and it worked fine.
Hi Roland,really enjoyed the video and wll be giving the hinge a try on one of my boxes.Subscribed so looking forward to seeing the handle in use,regard Matthew
That's great Mathew! On the GIANT chest, I had to make a different process since the chest was larger than my router table. THAT was interesting. Thanks for watching the video and the subscription and the LIKE.
Thanks for the view commish. The 1/8" inch rod was my choice because of a few factors. It was small but not TOO small and still rigid and strong. It's not going to rust since it's bronze...AND I can cut the hinge out if I ever need to without fear of hitting a steel rod...ALUMINUM would do well also but it costs more and isn't as easy to get hands on for me. ALSO, the drift on an 1/8" drill is FAR less than the smaller sizes so I get a better result drilling the segments out. I have now changed to 3/8 dowels because that's easier cutting the grooves and hides better. The rods now are WAY tighter in the wood and I have not changed my drill...I think the manufacturer changed their process and they are a couple thousandths bigger than before. Thanks again for the view and I hoe you can watch others and subscribe as well. I only have a few left to get to 1000 subs and I'd love to get there soon.
Roland, i'm a bit late to this party, and will give this a go very soon. But when you were routing out the recess for the dowel, why did you leave a slight gap between the lid and the base, why not give 1 more pass on the router, thus making the gap between the lid and base invisible?
Great question RL. That tiny gap is something I learned from experience with these hinges. The lid, since it's made from wood, can sometimes warp UP at the front of the box. If there is NO GAP at the back, the front of the lid can LIFT OFF, leaving a, sometimes very visible, gap at the face of the box. This tiny gap at the back prevents that from happening. HOWEVER, you CAN do as you mentioned and make it super tight. Sometimes they don't move.
Hey Tom, that is a great question and a tricky one too. Since I've switched to using 3/8", I HAVE noticed that the dowels get "buried" about 2/3rds into the back of the box. I have a JessEm router table now and with the 3/8 bit, I set the bench at 1/8 back from zero. HOWEVER, I ALWAYS use scrap first to set both lateral and vertical depth before I start cutting into my hero piece...just to be safe. Thanks for the comment and for watching my video.
@@rolandgdean I am going to try to make a wooden hinge and use your video. There has to be a formula as to how far the dowel is out of the box to maintain the correct opening of the lid for each size of the dowel. I will also use several scrap pieces I am sure. I am guessing of course but you would think a 1/4 of the distance of the dowel circumference would move the lid 90 degrees so, in my calculations, a 3/8" dowel is 1.1775" in circumference divided by 4 gives me .294375 so that would be the amount sticking out. I know I am crazy.
@@imanutnur7 Something else...I think of it in terms of radius and diameter, since we have a center axis point and percentage "buried". I'm thinking that about 85% buried would get the lid opening 90 degrees. So, the center of the BIT would be "about" 35% of the diameter of the dowel from the back edge of the box. >.< This maths hurts my brain this early in the day...lol.

However, I subscribe to Shogo here on RUclips and he always response to my DMs in IG and he has 1.5 MILLION subs so...I don't know, I guess it's about the person. I asked Rob a question once about the hinge in regard to the full length pin and he told me that it couldn't be done because the bit would deflect trying to drill all the way through a segment...I just flip the segments and drill halfway...plus, he uses smaller bits too so...I guess it depends. I'm used to figuring out a lot on my own.

Since this is youur first video. Project is interesting, well documented by you. However it is highly annoying to see you talking for minutes at a time, and then when you start the actual work you show it in double, triple or quadruple speed. We want to get a picture of what you do and how you do it. Not just an explanation and rush through the execution. If you do the same thing repeatedly you could speedup after the 2nd or 3rd repetition or simply cut out that footage. Viewers have the option to skip ahead or speed up. But we cannot slow down without a horrible loss in quality.
