ORIGINAL: Campgems

It's looking good, but don't forget to put the backup blocks like in Mikes photo shop pic of the fix. You need a couple of the barbs in wood for the hinge point to hold. Lay the Hinge point on top, with the hinge pin on the TE and see how much of the barbed shank is going to be in wood. I think you will find that only one would be and that won't hold. Three is going to be enought.

I havent forgotten about the blocks. Just havent gotten there yet. But thanks for the reminder and confirming that 3 points will be sufficient.
