Motorhead Posted August 18, 2006 Posted August 18, 2006 This posting failed a week ago....so next try!Here are my CD800 brothers,one with the "regular,the other one with the "standing" hinge.Michafirst the "regular" one in a black case with light blue inlet-the case...
Daniel Murphy Posted August 18, 2006 Posted August 18, 2006 Micha, You have two very beautiful crosses there (and the cases don't hurt either ). I have to say I have never seen that standing hinge variation before. I had expected it would be the regular hinge on its end, but this is a totally different hinge / pin system. I know we have heard much of some manufacturers supplying parts to other firms. Do you think that perhaps they did not get their shipment of hinges from a supplier and had to make them from sheetmetal? And then had to modify the pins by adding that silver "stop"?Dan Murphy

I posted a picture of mine on MCF a few months back. I have to say once again, Micha has hit 'gold' with these.
Motorhead Posted August 19, 2006 Author Posted August 19, 2006 Thanks,guys! Russel,you are right-this variation is not often seen at the marked.I own another one,but it's really beaten up and worn.So I had to take this one also......here's my"old" oneMicha
