Project 25 from Alan Revere's "Professional Jewelry Making" Book

As many of you know I have been working my way through this book over the last couple of years. I have posted a few of the completed projects as I have finished them and a few of you will have seen me working on this latest one over the last few weeks.  These are my 2nd and 3rd hinges ever and I was really pleased with the way they turned out, although setting them up literally took hours.  The hardest part in the whole process was soldering on the small cap.  With lots of help from Fiona I practiced using the Smith Little Torch until I finally managed to solder the cap (we are talking about 15 to 20 attempts).
