I'm building a couple of small jewelry boxes for granddaughters. I planned to support the hinged lid with a sliding stay (Lee Valley item 00D45.40).
I laid out the dimensions and think I have the pivot points located, but thought I'd try something smart for a change and ask. It looks like if I'm off just a small amount, there could be interference between the stay and the rear side or the bottom. Is there a methodology for establishing the two screws so the top opens to 90*, closes/opens without binding, and the stay clears the back wall when closed?
Thanks,
Tom
