    I built a chuck box and was wondering what type of hinges are used in this picture. I got the plans off of the Filson website but they don’t say what type of hinges these are. It’s 1/2 plywood
    Thanks!

    I think my dad and I used piano hinges when we built one a long time ago.

    Those look like your typical hardware store special, I would suggest checking out Lee Valley to see what hinges they offer. You might also get lucky with McMaster Carr.

    Cupholder that is big enough to hold a 32oz water bottle.
    surface mount, overlay hinge. It'll mount to the outside of the back of the box and the inside of the lid.

    Drop leaf hinge? Screws further from the pin on one side than other? WoodCraft has them on the shelf usually.

    EDIT: Probably a stupid suggestion ... just trying to show off.
