Default RE: Hinge Glueing tips???


ORIGINAL: rogers259
I've been building for several years and have yet to figure out the secret to NOT!!! epoxying the hinges. Tips PLEASE!!!
Oil the hinge pins as recommended by others, to stop the epoxy bonding there.

When you're ready to install the hinges, put the epoxy exactly where it should go, and not where it should _not_ go. And the way to do that is to use [link=http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10001&langId=-1&catalogId=10001&productId=34042]these epoxy syringes. [/link]
