Hi all,

This may be an old trick but I newly discovered it.
A small access door hinge of 2 x 0.5" one side, 0.25" + 0.5" + 0.25" the 
other, can be made to come apart easily by putting in a 4 x 0.5" pin 
instead of a 1 x 2" pin. Moving it 0.25" does it. The abutting hinge pin 
sections are contained by a split pin or a piece of safety wire through 
a 1mm hole at each end.
The advantage is that only very little room at one end of the hinge is 
needed.
