Guess I would have needed to somehow stabilize it before removing to keep it from going "boing" when the tension was released. Though right now everything is out in the storage bin or machine shed - along with way too much other stuff!

That is why I wish there was a swap section somewhere, I have piles of parts that I will never use thatwould allow someone else to get one up and running.

Very well done hinges. I used to do a lot of metal fabrication for aircraft. Very nice work!!!
