Becoming Unhinged and looking North! (2015)

Dropped in to the bunker today for a spot of BBC filming (should be going out on 9th November 2015).

Took a little time out to try and find out why one of the self closing doors wasn’t self closing.  Turns out one of the Oil Damped spring hinges was seized, causing the door to start coming apart due to the strong spring action of the other hinge which wasn’t seized. Removed Seized hinge and started dismantling it – much plus gas and heat got most of the screws out but there’s still one stuck in there – which appears to be preventing it coming apart.Hinge with daming adjuster removedLovely trade mark
