    Butterfly Hinge

    I am in need of 6 of these hinges ( the supplier stopped making them in the uk ) As anybody seen these here, or could point me in the right direction, i can get similar more square edged ones, but would ideally like this type, there for my rear crew doors on the Firefly.....

    I doubt they will have the exact same hinge, but the boating place Whitworths maybe a good place to look for an alternative.

    If you can't find a supplier, I could have a go at making you up a set if you wanted.

    Cheers, Mick.

    The image on the right gives the impression that this hinge was whittled up by hand.
    Wagoo.

    Or more likely a computer rendering...

    Speaking of which, if all else fails let me know, I will 3D CAD model it and get some rapid prototyped in bronze infused stainless steel, might end up a bit expensive and the finish will be lightly pitted as if the bead blaster was overzealous. And may only last a few years.
