Doug Stowe has been making boxes for more than 30 years, and over that time he has perfected his techniques for designing and building them. In this episode of his video workshop on making boxes, Stowe shows how to install traditional brass hinges on a box. His secret to success is a story stick that takes all of the guesswork out of the job. The story stick guides the router as he cuts the hinge mortises in the lid and box side. The result is a perfect fit.

where does one find the hinges used in the "Mortised Brass Hinges" video
At about 20 seconds into the video, he says they are Brusso hinges. You can get them from Brusso at https://www.brusso.com/stop-hinges/ It looks like Rockler might carry them as well as some other retailers.
