Just skip to the relevant bits.

 

Jimmy, thank you for this, I think it will solve the problem, we'll definitely try the PVC. Have everything necessary anyway, were just too dumb to think of it. (And I'm going to make a bow like that.  )

We will of course require photographic and video evidence of the end result!

That looks really good, but i'm not sure about how the trigger works. Please post a little video of it in action. 

Good idea.

I was contemplating making some form of jig to mortise hinges with a router and had all kinds of interesting ideas - a spot for putting waste blocks to prevent tear-out, adjustable depth stops, self-centering, clamping pads etc etc etc. And then I remembered that I have a beard. Took me less time to cut out 8 hinge mortises than I spent wondering about the mechanics of a self-centering jig.

LOL.

 

Or, you could get a palm router. BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!

 

Done. 

 

Want one so badly...

And if you were sharp, yes, that's Ed's suggestion. Works a charm. Perfect weight and PERFECT swing for small work such as this.

 

Price suggestions?

I am not sure at all what type of wood this is but all I know is it is pretty old. My grandfather bought it(8 beams in total) years ago and they just lay around in a carport at my folks place for many years. Then when I bought my house just over a year ago I gutted the kitchen which included removing 2 walls. One of them was load bearing so I had to do something to take up the load. I decided to take 2 of these beams and give them a light sanding, cut to size and put them up. I have also since built an island around them. They each have a metal disk pressed into them with a date stamp of 1984 and 1985. Presuming that's when they where made.
