RE: F-100 "Build" thread
Normally, with Dan's chute box, the hinges are made from tube and wire and tye are held in by the box when its glued in the last time. Because this box is removable, the doors needed to be hinged directly to the skin, independently from the box mounting. I used mini piano hinges from Nelson hobby as you can see here. Actually, if you look at pictures of the full-scale aircraft, these doors are held in place with piano hinges which are roughly the same scale as the Nelson ones...
