Re: [N8VEM-S100:6002] FP Mini Switch Bracket

Might seem like it. I've gotten orders for 18 however I
sent out over 60 boards.

In hindsight, I should have ordered the brackets with the PCB's
and sent them out together. Sorry you guys to pay for double
shipping.

OK, so don't freak out. Bracket installation is going to require you
to drill two holes in the FP Mini PCB. The holes are going through
ground zones so shouldn't be a problem. You may want to hold
off on assembly until you get the bracket. The bracket can be used
as your drilling template. If you've already assembled the board you
can drill from the back side. I'll also be including nice aluminum threaded
stand-off's with screws. This is similar to how the Imsai front panel
mounts it's bracket. You are, however free to install just the bracket
if your not comfortable drilling holes in your PCB.

Is it just me, or am I seeing more orders for switch brackets than there were for FP mini boards? :)

Guys,

I decided to go with a little different switch bracket. The second one
I posted (U Shaped) is more expensive (nearly double). Due to it's
size and weight shipping doubles the original price.

After fabricating one and trying out the single mount point bracket
I think it's just fine.

I'm going to be offering them for $6 dollars which includes 21 nice
2-56 Phillips head stainless steel mounting screws. If you not planning
on using the bracket in a chassis it is a value tool for getting all the
switches soldered in an aligned perfectly.

Shipment will arrive around the 20th.

The best price I could get on an aluminum bracket was $15. If you really
want an aluminum bracket contact me off list. I'll be fabricating a few.
They take about 30-45 mins each after drilling and taping the holes.
Once my bar stock gets here I'm going to try  using the mill and drilling
4-5 brackets at a time, which should help.
