cont'd from 7/13:

Exposed and Hidden Piano Hinges:

1)Exposed

Chamfer a groove between hatch and deck. Alternate loops of say copper (or bronze or plastic - some hard thin mat'l). Run a pin thru and lock in place.

2) Hidden

Mount hinge flanges in deck/glass interface, alternate loops, and run slip pin through. Or try heavy duty plastic hinges from large scale model airplanes while still using a long pin.

3) Blind Stud

While not really a blind dzus, the blind stud with either bunches of pins or with one long pin in a track, might be the closest to what I'm looking for.
