I have a set off a Heinz Gullwing I could trace if you need to fabricate some! Not sure if they are even the right size?

What does a C2 look like? I may have one to use as a pattern if that would be useful to you?

Thanks for checking anyhow, trying to help out a friend, as her cooler's left hinge is very damaged. So the search goes on...

Mine looks very similar to that .  I'll take a picture, will it work?  Probably not...

You never know, perhaps a parts machine is out there.

Is there one good side with hinges maybe you can make one?

Yeah, the lid was detached when she bought it, its in really nice shape, just missing the right hinge & damage to the left side.  Go figure.   :Oo:

Record players, piano benches and upright pianos are a few things that come to mind that would have the same type of hinge.

Find someone she can buy a complete lid or a parts machine with good hinges.  :tounge:

There are a few other board members with C2 coolers, search for C2P and you'll find a bunch more, maybe one of them could help

Yeah, wow... Hadn't thought of that,   :glare:


Hah hah

She just wants to buy a pair of hinges, she does not want to copy or fabricate them, I am not repairing this machine for her, just posting what she is looking for.
