Dodge,
Thanks for the thought. I want the hinges to be unique and not an off the shelf product. I don't mind paying someone, just have not foound someone close to make them as needed. I just like the thought of making them myself, that way everything piece of the piece was made by me.
Thanks
Steve

Thanks Primtech and Finn for the info. Does anyone sell these type of things or I am looking at getting it home grown? Since no one replied, and assume that no one knows of any off the shelf product/tool/machine to use to this. I am going to use at least a 100 or so of these a month.

I am in Santa Maria, CA. It is on the coast just north of Santa Barbara.
Thanks for the replies - anyone close to the central coast? -
I would like to know if someone makes a Hinge Eye Bender similar to the Blue Print (BP0152 Hinge Eye Bender) for making hinge eyes in 1/8 in flat bar.
I have searched and found a Hossfeld Universal Bender - has anyone used one of these to make a hinge eye? Is there something better? Anyone have something for sale.
I am a furniture maker and not a Smith, but would like to make my own hinges. I use a lot, so I do not want to hand roll on an anvil.
Thanks in advance.
Steve

Thanks for the links to the blue prints section. I am new to the list and that is a great start to what I was looking for.

I am looking for a California Blacksmith to teach me how to make a simple strap hinge out of 1 inch steel flat bar. I have some of these hinges already and can show you what I need. I could buy them from someone too, but would prefer to make my own. I make furniture and would love to make the hinges as well.
Thanks

Nett,
I did not know that Cal Poly had a program. That is only 3o minutes down the road - I will check that out. Hope the wine come out well.
