Where should I post a picture for all you people to see?
I have a design that I created that is approx. 28 x 47" shutters/valance that I would like to have time input on.
Thanks, Steve

Is this one single panel or what? If so, then the top section is definately a huge hinge problem unless you're going to have zinc go all the way around it...if it's one single panel. Why not build it so that you can put it in a wood frame and then you'd be able to use hinges.

1/2"-3/4" zinc all around, and solder the hinges to the flat zinc, or use a wood frame for the best support.
The top 'Music Staff' panel will be stationary, with the 2 bottom panels acting as shutters.
I was hoping to try and get by without any wood.
I've got some zinc caming that I would try to place diagonally across each panel.
Thanks, Steve
Oh ok. I guess my only concerns would be when you open them, will they have a tendancy to want to flex? There is small pretinned steel rebar you could use or do the zinc thing.
