The CA hinge might only be sold in large sheets right now, so all you need per hinge is 1/2" x 1" for each hinge.
I think Blenderm is only used to seal the gaps but if you can use it for 1/2A hinging that would be very cool.
Wow, you guys are making slits in 1/8" balsa? I'll have to practice that. Much Thanks!
