When you have complete the hinged "trap door" post how you have done it.

I have also thought about creating such a door. One consideration that I have pondered is enough area for the oil to pour out of without contacting the sides of the opening and creating a mess.

What would you use for the hinges and for a latch?

Keep us posted,

It's still in the thinking stages. I will have to REALLY take a look to see if it's practical, but I planned to use a couple of small brass hinges, and a small exterior cabinet latch (not sure how to describe it) that I have laying around from a boat.. You just squeeze the latch, and it opens...At first glance, it looked pretty easy..
