If you are using this on a Midway cocktail a regular piano hinge won't work right. Due to the way you would have to mount it, it would not hold well. Basically a regular piano hinge in that application = crap. You need a full wrap piano hinge made for 3/4" material.

I am replacing a Joust CP that came with no hinge, what is the "open width" of the hinge needed? Here's a picture to explain:
If anyone knows, or could be troubled to measure theirs real quick...? Thanks in advance. If it's 1", I'm in luck, as my company carries that in stock...
Well I think I answered my own question... It looks like the hinge on my Joust is 2" based on how the paint faded around the old one. Sigh. So I need to find one, still.
I wonder who might sell them locally... Ace or Home Depot wouldn't, I imagine?
