Small Box Hinge Fix

[glenn bradley]

Small boxes use small hinges. Small errors look big on small boxes. I oops'd on some hinge hole placement.

Wooden q-tip sticks and gap filling glue to fill the holes. Once dry snip the excess stick off and pare smooth.

Use some double stick type to align the lid . . . . correctly this time .

I use a steel screw (this one happens to be brass plated) to pre-thread the holes for the soft brass screws.

Now we're lined up like I wanted.
