Attaching plastic to wood.
Bones:
I have a small USB hub I want to mount on a piece of wood. I am trying to work out a way to just stick it in place. I want to avoid the options of woodworking a piece of wood to suit the profile, I just want to stick it down. Being a plug there will be some strength required.
I have one flat surface on the hub to work with. I thought about hot glue but don't have a similar material to try as a test piece and I don't think I would be quick enough anyway.
Any idea's on what would work? Maybe a two-part epoxy or something?

Heavy duty Velcro - the kind they use to mount CB radios to a car dash.

I second that. That's what I use to hold my volume/base pod to the back of my cab, also the switch to turn my marquee on/off. They jiggle loose occasionally, but I just press them down and they're good to go again.
What are you going to use 4 USB hubs for? 2 for light guns? Anything else?

Velcro will work great, just don't get the fuzzy side/pointy side stuff... get the industrial velcro that has plastic channels in it... it won't move.
Or you could use Gorilla glue if you NEVER want to move it again.

Bend a little piece of metal into a bracket with some pliers and screw it down tight... Thing won't be going anywhere.
