Any suggestions on the best way to remove a door hinge pin without ruining the paint too much. I'd like to fit a threaded one for a mirror.

Yeah, I did ask Mr Lloyd if he could take it to Stanford Hall so I could try and use it there, but then the show was postponed and the plan fell apart.

Is this tool the only way of getting the pin out without messing the paint?

Think you can still chip the paint with the tool if the paint is all over the old pin.

I can live with repainting the hinge, I just don't want to put heat on it and burn the paint off half the door...

Offer is still open Rob.

To be honest I probably wouldn't have had time at Lavenham, too many other things to do!

When are you next in Cambridgeshire? :lol:
