More hinge work.

They were blasted, then shot with PPG DPLF. I let that dry for a day then scuffed them and shot a couple coats of Slick Sand on them.

Blocked with 120/180.

Shot with tinted K93 and wetsanded.

Shot with base/clear.

Beginning to carefully reassemble them with new hinge pins and bronze thrust bushings.
