What are you all using to hold down your control systems?

We use a lexan box with another piece of lexan mounted vertically on one side. Two big holes in the main box for joysticks and the OI itself mount on the piece sticking out the side.

this year our programmers are making a new one complete with switches, LEDs, and cathodes. They aren't letting out anything more than that until it's done.

a smart thing to do is put velcro on the bottom to make sure it stays. Not sure which side of the velcro is on the shelf where you put your OI. It says in the rules somewhere but I can't seem to find it

Perforated Aluminum + zip-ties. We are being very careful with every connection in case crimps or zip-ties fail.
