Hi everyone. This is the step-by-step video (with a little bit of intro just for the members) that accompanies the ‘Plus’ version of the Rail Hinge Plans. There's a public-facing YouTube video out on Friday at noon, and there'll be a members version of that video published here as well, of course, but this step-by-step was ready and I thought I'd just post it here a little early for you.
It won’t give away any surprises - it’s very much a ‘how-to’ about the build, rather than the ‘why’ of the public video - but if you prefer to wait until Friday before taking a look then no problem.
I think I can put the plans here in this post, and I’ll add them in to the 10minuteworkshop.plus Plans forum when I manage to get that set up; it all takes such a long time!
Anyway, I couldn’t be happier with the hinge, it scratches all the itches I had with the otherwise excellent rail hinges from Benchdogs, Dashboard and Festool, and hopefully it may do the same for you too!
Cheers for now, Peter

Yep, that worked - plans below! 👍
Edit: revised plans below - slight error on original P4, front rail riser slot not centred.

Peter, glad your feeling better! Beautiful job on the rail hinge! I'm going to build one for my garage shop as soon as I recover from my shoulder surgery. Gives me a project to look forward to.
