Another thing we do is use nylon fasteners. We do this for a few reasons:
  1. Using plastic fasteners on the cRIO helps further isolate it from the baseplate.
  2. You can trim all the fasteners to length (after they've been installed) with a pair of flush cutters.
  3. 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.
  4. They're light.
Haha Ya. We screw the cRIO into the wood, but velcro everything else!
