Modern sideboard with single door
I used a flipper hinge - the typed that is used vertically on TV cabinets to allow a door to pull out then slide into the cabinet along the side. No modifications needed, just
The hinge keeps everything parallel - move one side and the other moves with it.
This is not what the hinge was intended to do, so the door is not supported by the hinge when it is opened. I used a skateboard wheel to hold it up
THis shows the open door supported on the wheel
Here is how the door looks open
Here are some details of the operation of the door on a piece that I submitted on November 25th.
