Cutting a hinge butt into timber requires precise marking and controlled chisel work to ensure a flush fit. Begin by using a marking gauge to measure the distance from the outside edge of the hinge flap to the center of the knuckle.0:17 Transfer this measurement to the wood to establish the correct overhang for the door.0:31 Use a mallet and chisel to cut the perimeter of the recess, then remove the bulk of the waste timber with repeated, shallow diagonal cuts.0:10 Align the chisel carefully with the scribed indentation line created by the marking gauge to define the back edge of the recess.1:39 Maintain gentle pressure throughout the process to prevent splitting the wood or cutting deeper than the intended depth.1:17 Visual alignment remains critical for the end cuts to achieve a tight, gap-free fit.1:53 Careful, incremental material removal prevents damage to the surrounding timber and ensures a professional finish for the hinge installation.
