- Making a forge hinge pintle for the strap hinge forged yesterday. This pintle will be threaded for a nut so that it may be secured through the gate post.

I like your style of presentation, very informative.
Thanks John!
You really do make it look so easy, thanks for the vid.
Great work as always! Definitely interested in a set of these hinges 🍻
I am looking forward to attempting to make some hinges and pintles. This was very helpful Thanks!
I hope they go well for you
Great Job , You made the work on the pintil , very easy to understand ! Stay Safe !
Wet and soggy in Beulah... Sounds like a song you can pick on a banjo
Hello John...thanks again for a great video...A quick question...I take it that you source commercially available square nuts and fire them to match the pintel, rather than tapping from scratch
You are correct. McMaster Carr used t carry unplated square nuts, but now they only carry then plated. I am about to upload a video describing how I deal with commercial fasteners to make them compliment the iron work.
I'm a very recent subscriber. I like the less "in-your-face" style, John. This was very informative. I also watched the video of making the strap hinge, too. I do have a question about the bolt/screw holes in the strap. I see you only formed two holes on the long strap nearer the finial. Is that enough for a large wooden gate? Would the weight of the gate eventually pull down on the side?
There were actually 4 holes, I just didn't repeat the same procedure that many times for the video. I am glad you like the videos.
When I build my new cabin this summer, I want to make a heavy front door out of solid wood with long forged hinges that come across the door. I haven't decided on 2 or 3 hinges yet. If you don't mind me asking, how thick do you think they would need to be to carry the weight? When I was young, we had what I believe was a 2.5" thick solid oak front door with black iron looking hinges like described above, and I loved the look of it.
I think it has more to do with how well they are fastened to the door than a given thickness. Old forged hinges were often quite thin. However I like a strap of 1/4" x 1 1/2" for heavier doors and have never had anyone report a problem
Thank you. I was thinking along the lines of 1/4" also. Now I just need to decide on the overall look of the hinge. Maybe something medieval looking that would compliment a dragon door knocker. 🤔😉
Sounds awesome, take pictures and share if you can.
At 14:06 what exactly are we zooming in on there?😆
I'm I the only one who read the title as "Hintle pintle"?
