Beautiful. The little metal corners are a nice touch. I bet he loves it!

Thanks! They were very handy in hiding the crimes I committed while mortising the hinges.
Mortising quadrant hinges without a router is a 2/10 experience. Do not recommend.

LOL. I think we all need some crime-hiding metal on our various builds. Another plug for the classic exchange:
"Just put the bad side against the wall."
"I don't have that many walls in my house."
