Yea, it’s 16 pieces in the pivot section so I guess it’s not too bad. I don’t want a bunch of hinges I can’t use.

if you need to gauge interest, i am interested in a set for sure.

Steel price is insane right now just like wood.

Was that through send cut send? I just used them and it wasnt too bad. Someone told me to check out Oshcut. Same idea but might be a bit cheaper.

Yes it was send cut send, I don’t think the price is too bad just way more than a few months ago.

Look what I just received from send-cut-send

I think it would be cool to do some in brass or titanium...Until I looked at the prices.

Very cool. I started playing with some cardboard today to see how I could do mine. Thank you for the great idea.

Yes, I had some extras cut for a few people who contacted me wanting a set.

Tinydb84: I also looked at some different metals $$$

So I don't want to be the hammer, but then that's my job. Please don't turn this into a WTB thread. There's some very nice work going on here Norcalgal!!!!
