Looking for small hinges

[Richard Rombold]

I have been ask to make some small boxes for sewing machine accessories like 'Singer' had back in the dark ages. I am having trouble in finding the hinges that I need. See the pictures.
At one time I had some, but, now I can't find them.

As you can see, they are flat single pin, about 5/16" wide, each leg 1" long.
Any body have any ideas where I can get some?
Thank you.
Richard

Take a look at my mess and work.

I can't tell from the pics. Are they press-fit or actual knife hinges? Brusso's are great but, Lee valley's may be more cost effective: http://www.leevalley.com/US/hardware/page.aspx?p=68961&cat=3,41241,41267

As far as I can tell without tearing the box apart. they are press fit. I have check all the normal suppliers and couldn't find any. I have a order for 5 boxes IF I can find a hinge to work.

The small Brusso knife hinges are as close as I can find. I think I would make my own from some brass sheet stock and bass rod. Drill holes in the sheet for the brass rod and countersink the outsides slightly. then basically make a rivet front the brass rod but peening the end and filing it flat. Holes drilled in the leaves, filled with epoxy would hold them in slots in the wooden pieces.
