My old glory hole door hinge gave out right in the middle of a pull

It happened yesterday morning while I was working on a large vase. The hinge pin on my side door sheared clean off, and the door swung down onto my marver. I had to quickly set the piece in the annealer and shut everything down. I ended up having to order a whole new hinge assembly from ABR Imagery for about $75. Has anyone found a good way to reinforce those older hinge setups before they fail?

Oof, that's the worst. I just replaced mine before it broke.

Wait you actually replaced it BEFORE it broke, @dakotal19? That's some next level planning.
