Boy Larry,

I'm sure glad you posted this part!
I was just about to ask about barrel hinges.


There's another alternative I haven't tried yet. Woodcraft has started
carrying round hinges. You just clamp the box and lid together and drill
a recess with a Forstner bit. They even come with an optional "shelf"
that prevents the box from opening too far.

They're probably available elsewhere but I work part time at Woodcraft so
I know about the ones we carry.
