2. The hinge pin won’t go through the knuckles.

In a perfect hinge the pin comes through perfectly straight. If it doesn’t go through on the first try, separate the box from the lid and slide the pin through only this set of knuckles, i.e. #1, 3, and 5. If you see the pin, for instance, angling to the side as it leaves #3 knuckle, you have located the alignment problem. It is often possible to bend the knuckle back into place. With a metal hinge pin in the tube, grip the knuckle with flat-nose pliers and twist it slightly. Repeat the test until the hinge pin slides unassisted through all the sections.

If the pin won’t go through at all, it’s possible that a piece of solder has flowed into and blocked the tube. This is unlikely (and one of the reasons you should use as little solder as possible). More often it is flux residue that is blocking the hinge. Phew! Set the work back into fresh hot pickle and give it time to dissolve the block, perhaps a half hour.

If the tube is blocked with solder, it is usually possible to drill it out, assuming you have a drill bit equal to the inside diameter of the tube. Sometimes it is more efficient to lift off the blocked tube and replace it with a new one.
