I did this, but using extruded hinges, instead of rolled hinges. They are apparently like 5x stronger and only slightly more expensive. Now I haven't actually sat in them, but they seem great and at least ground-adjustable or ground-removable.
Obviously, I need to cut down the ends of the "L" on the forward end of the pins and maybe make some safety tab/lock so they can't slide out. A work in progress! I am not a good enough craftsman to make the two seats interchangeable - there is definitely a left and right side which will only fit that way.
