Hello there
i found a weird "inverted" hinge plate 2x4. chances are somebody has
messed with it and i would like to disassemble and restore it to its correct
side.
I tried to remove the red pivot but i'm unable to do it. May i kindly ask
you if you know a way on how to correctly disassemble this part?

thank you!

Difficult to remove but I have done it on odd ones.

You need something like a steel rod and hammer, place on its edge on a hard surface,
tap it through carefully when on it’s side with a void below pin.

When on a solid surface protect surface and the sides of hinge from damage.

Thank you Stuart! So it looks like it's just a matter of elbow grease on
the right surface to take it out, no secret moves

Haven’t found an easy method.
