Either of those two hinges could potentially work for your project.

The differences:

The first one is a Brusso hinge—-a top-quality US-made hinge. That model is also a “stopped” hinge, so it prevents the box lid from opening past about 95 degrees.

The second is a more standard butt hinge—-no stop, and probably not as precisely made (i.e. it will have more slop).
