Thanks!
Nathan, I’ve done it that way before, but with hard maple, trying to bash the metal into the wood hasn’t gone great for me in the past, so I decided the chisel was the best answer. There’s now a little bit of epoxy holding the brass in place, but the bolt-head just sits in the hole in the wood so I can easily remove it if I should have some need.
Splint, I’m debating whether I want to send the folks at MicroMark a note. I’ve been impressed with other stuff from them, so I was disappointed by this.
