I haven't made any from scratch, but I found some "barn door" style brass hinges in the doll house section of a craft store quite a few years ago that I modified to work. It was a little blister pack that had two pieces of formed brass and a bunch of little brass nails to hold them together.

i made one so far, but it is not technically a piano hinge

i just gleud a section of 1/8 styrene tube to the roof of the car

put a little steel wire through it

got a piece of styrene sheet and drilled two holes in it

put the wire through the holes and glue the plate to the door

all done

:blink:

you need to ask this guy

MR.BIGGS

he did it on his 300 semi tractor trailer

the only problem is he hasn't been here for about 4-6 months but you can pm him and see if he will tell you how to do them
