This is great news, Shota. Now you have the tool that will help you. Unfortunately, I can't 'picture' how the tool should work. Can you make a small video of the bending process, possibly?
Ah..., I get it. Great engineering behind this tool. Many thanks for the step-by-step detailed explanations, mon ami.
Thanks Shota, smart engineering. They make hinges of doors on the same way. This one for the small ones.
Very ingenious my friend. That is an excellent piece of engineering.
Dear FriendsWow... I would never imagine something like that. Nice !!!!

Now I've seen a couple of methods to create working hinges, meaning I'm out of excuses not to go ahead and equip the wheel house and the windlass engine box with opening covers.hello dear friends
As I was asked by you I sat down today and simulated the process of working with the devices designed to create the circle at the end of the brass board into which the hinges are inserted.
I make pictures of each step in the process as well as a short video.

I hope this will help in understanding the process in the right way, wish us all a pleasant and enjoyable weekend
thank you very much for the information, my Dear friendHi Shota,
The easiest way to make a working hinge is just use some very small brass tube or seringe and solder it to brass plate or flattened anealed wire. In this way you get the strongest hinges.

That’s looking a very nice ‘old fashion’ rudder, Shota. With the bolts and the blackened hinges.hello dear friends
Today I continued to prepare the rudder of the ship, sanded the inside and bottom at 40 degrees and also blackened the hinges and this is the result
Wishing us all a pleasant and enjoyable weekend
