Open image of Cogs and Sprockets. Cut and paste it into new Tin Man image. Scale, Rotate and Skew to make it fit just larger than rectangle hole. Place this layer beneath Tin Man layer.

Use Bevel and Emboss and Drop Shadow on Tin Man to give the hole a realistic look.

Use inner shadow on Cogs layer.
