Since I have some Hatchet glasses, one has to be prepared for repairing the hinge sometimes.
I bought some of my Hatchets with broken hinges. Razrwire parts are identical and easy to get on eBay so that's what i'm using now.
Keep in mind the orientation of the hinge parts, take a picture
The temple washers is not flat like X-Metals, there is a slope that fits into the screw hole
Spring and plastic part is quite hard and it is difficult to align to the center of the screw hole, you need to use some force to push the spring a little back. Not so easy to push and try to screw.
I used what I had, a Dremel holding tool to have the glasses fixed so i can push and screw at the same time.
I used a needle first to get the holes above each other and held the stem in the right place for the screw.
Finally, the Hatchet i got from @Wicked is fixed
