Good evening all. I decided to gift a rifle I had bought probably 7 years ago to my father in law. He is from Illinois and I found a commemorative coin I would like to try to convert to a patchbox lid. The gun is a Traditions hawken. I can give dimensions if needed, but I'm wondering how feasible it sounds to grind/cut the original box lid and solder the coin (it's the Illinois state seal) in place of it.
So you know, I have considered already inletting it various places, but this seemed like if I could pull it off, would be a little less 'clunky' if that makes sense. Thanks.
