I do not ever use CA hinges. Never have, and probably never will. I know many people use them though. I use my own home made hinges out of Fabric covering. I get a gapless hinge that is very strong, and best of all they are extremely easy to install. Even making the hinge is easy. What I do is take two strips about 3/4" wide and sew them together one on top of the other with the glued side out on both strips. Now all you have to do is iron them on.
