Assume (I know that's trouble, but so be it) that if you make these
boxes, they will be purty.

If so, why would you put ugly hinges on a purty box?

Inquiring minds, including mine, want to know?

I prefer utilitarian rather than fancy hinges or latches, similar to
Shaker style. Already made some wire hinges, not ugly and not fancy
neither.
