There is more than one way to skin a cat,....sometimes changing a hinge pin is too drastic a measure, especially when the gap is slight or when one has to deal with re-engraving something that was done by an old master,...too many new tools and techniques can now be used to properly repair the old doubles,..things that one would have never thought possible 50 years ago can now be done to achieve perfection ,...even some of the purists have adopted them, they just won't tell you about it.
Blood letting and the pony express had their time,...now we have modern medicine and cell phones, you don't still communicate by snail mail,.... do you?
