Customer Reviews
Master craftsman Dale Nish taught me how to make an amazing wood hinge for boxes. A wooden dowel is cut into segments, a shallow hole is drilled in the center of each dowel and a small pin is inserted into the hole for the dowel segments to pivot on. I've made thousands of boxes using this style of hinge and I have designed four jigs to precisely drill the hole in the center of dowel segments (the most difficult task).

Well made product, as usual. Great service, as usual. I just wish my talent would rise to the same quality as the Cosman tools.
The learning curve is short. Got it the 2nd time. The dowel needs to be exactly the size of the tool. I made the dowel 1/64" bigger and sanded to fit the tool. The tool centers the hole perfectly.
Excellent product. Fast shipping amazing customer service. Would buy the entire set Instead of just one size if you plan on using scrap pieces. Since they are not always one thick enough.
Great communication all the way to Australia.. yet to use the jig but I’m sure it will work a treat. Pleasure to deal with.
Merci Mr Cosman.
J'ai découvert les charnières construites en bois à travers vos vidéos et j'ai été passionné. J'ai donc acheté les articles nécessaires pour construire une boîte. Les articles sont impeccables. Par contre la réalisation demande une parfaite maîtrise de l'ébénisterie qu'il faudra acquérir avec la pratique. J'en suis à ma deuxième boîte et j'ai déjà constaté du progrès.
Je recommande fortement ces articles pour ce type de travail.
