[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3756799, member: 15054"] Small hinges that you bolt on with stainless nuts and bolts. That is they way I would fix it. Now a really poor boy way would be to drill a 1/4" hole in the lid and the base and take bailing wire or steel electric fence wire and cut about 5 or 6 long strands and clamp them in a vise or secure one end to a tree limb or nail on a post and take the other ends and group them together and start twisting them. Basically making twisted rope from bailing wire. Run it through the holes you drilled to make a bailing wire Circle hinge ..kind of like a key ring. Twist the 2 ends to secure it. Been there done that. Now if a plastic ice chest lid hinges break off you can make a dandy hinge from leather. Screw the leather to the lid and to the base. I have used worn out leather boots and belts to make ice chest hinges. [/QUOTE]
