Hi Edd, Thanks for the response. I have enjoyed your many good posts. I started with hatchmasters but then got deeply into a diy job. It is just one damn hinge that is standing in my way. Maybe someone else has an idea that does not involve sending in the hatch, waiting months, and paying more than a new hatch? Let's see. But thanks.
