Seek Very Thin Hinge For Musical Box
By Marc Kaufman

I need a pair of very thin hinges to replace broken and missing brass
hinges on a music box.  The biggest problem is that the existing hinge
is only 0.032" (1/32") thick.  The overall length is 2.175", 1" wide
(1/2" edge to pivot), with three holes on 3/4" centers (more or less
-- the original is 3/4" on one side and 13/16" on the other side).
I haven't been able to find any commercial hinges that thin.

Thanks,
Marc Kaufman
