Another thing we do is use nylon fasteners. We do this for a few reasons:
- Using plastic fasteners on the cRIO helps further isolate it from the baseplate.
- You can trim all the fasteners to length (after they've been installed) with a pair of flush cutters.
- We're tapping into 1/8" thick aluminum and the threads on the nylon screw will give before we can strip out the tapped hole in the baseplate.
- They're light.

Haha Ya. We screw the cRIO into the wood, but velcro everything else!
