  • Hinges.
    I can't work this out in my head.
    I wish to hinge a small removeable cabinet door, and have these nice hinges

    The door will be hinged at the bottom, and when closed the hinge will be at 90 degrees. It will open to 180 degrees (or slightly more).
    I want the hinge to be (almost) completely concealed when the door is shut, and the inside face of the door to sit in line with the outside face of the frame - in the manner of the panel and plinth on this bath:

    Given this diagram showing hinge dimensions

    how should I countersink the door and frame, and where should the centre of the pin be in relation to the door and frame?

    wrong hinges, get a set of kitchen door cabinet sprung arch type, with magnet catch at top, or 4 magnet catches and locating dowel pins
