Hi,
Just a quick search shows they are available at Walmart, Amazon.com, Rockler, Home Depot, and
smaller retailers like Grainger.
Good luck and God Bless! Spirithorse

You might wish to practice installing those barrel hinges as they are a bit more tricky than they look.  Just a suggestion however.

Really? I bought the book creative wooden boxes from a scroll saw. It looks easy. Thank you for the heads up.  If it were you would you just use regular  hinges? I will give it a try in some scrap wood.

Give it a go ... just be as accurate as possible when drilling the holes.  It can be tricky but if done right looks fantastic.
