    Thanks Darryn:
    Your stones look harder than the carbonate rocks I plan to use. My plan was to drill a small hole for a threaded insert and epoxy that into the stone and install with a small brass flat head machine screw which is my usual practice on antler pulls and even some wooden ones...

    Thanks William, any chance of getting a photo of it at some point?

    I am cutting the threads with a homemade threading jig. It is uses a sliding vice and use a 3/4” double sided cutter in a collet

    I drill holes into the bottom of the rock with a diamond bit on a foredom tool. Cut a small finish nail to length. Epoxy the finish nail into the rock with the pointy end out. Predrill a hole in the wood box top slightly smaller than the nail diameter and push the finish nail in.
