Picked up a RR spike while on vacation in AK (awesome place BTW). I'm working on this wood project that's going to display such spike, and I would like some suggestions on how to fasten it to the display board I'm working on. Wanted some type of pewter fastener but I cannot seem to find such a thing on-line, sooo....I was wondering if it was feasible to drill through the spike so as to attach it with a couple of screws...any thoughts on this idea? I have a drill press but I really do not want to ruin the spike.
