Hello Carl. Welcome to Onshape. From your post it isn't possible to see all that you have created but from the looks of your feature tree, I suspect you have used tools and features that would be unnecessary if the model were created from the beginning in a simpler way. Please post a link to your document so we can see what is going on. - Scotty
Your first sketch should look like this. The barrel and the leaf should be drawn together in the same sketch.. (you can even draw the leaf for the second half of the hinge in the same sketch, but that's more advanced).
I modeled the hinge for fun too:) There are many ways to make a hinge, this was my approach. Feel free to go through it feature by feature. You probably won't know what half the things are, however, unless you do some part studio and assembly training.
