Anything to do with mechanical, construction etc

Yeah that would work. I found some here too:

They have an aluminum 11" for $53.95 That would look sharp.


Anyone think maybe using a single Jeep door hinge would work for a round door?

Here's a British teardrop with porthole windows that open - the outer/upper half rotates. No screens though as we don't get that many flying things over here (though if any of you have been to Scotland in the autumn/fall, you'll disagree).

Not that that helps someone in the US, but at least you now know what you're missing!

And I believe Del's Roswell hinge may be called a 'strudy hinge' as that's the very word he says just after he sits up in bed and smacks his head on the hinge.... :oops:

:thinking: Round doors, I'm also curious as to the profile your thinking?
I saw a round window at the ITG that was home built, it was slit in half and the bottom just rotated up to open a screened part.
