    Thanks Al. I worked on it for about 4 hrs last night. I got the pocket in the top plate milled out for the hinge block and the hinge holes drilled.
    Added pics from 06ja16.

    I also made the hinge block and got that drilled and tapped for the mounting bolts. i could have made this out of some 1/2" key stock but I LOVE offhand cutting on the VBS.

    Marking the holes in the hinge block after fitting it to the notch in the top plate.

    i used a .25 dia. transfer punch to mark the holes in the hinge block.
