After I used CA hinges for the first time I never wanted to install another pinned hinge. I have used the CA hinges for 15 years that I know of and never had a single problem with them. I don't have giant scale models but for the 60 size and smaller planes I think they are the cats meow. I hated trying to get the pinned hinges in and not get the poxy all over everyting. And if they aren't all straight they work against themselves. Just a couple of months ago I gave away a big bag of pinned hinges to a buddy. He doesn't like to try anything new. After he saw me use the CA hinges I don't think will use the pin hinges I gave him.

But thats just me.
