where to buy pcb mounting feet locally?

(1/2) > >>

Do any hardware or computer stores cary pcb mounting feet? I'm planning on building my cab soon and wanted to use some of these to mount my computer inside the cabinet.  I read about some of the tricks people have used (i.e. a cut up pen), but would prefer to stick with the pcb mounting feet.

When I searched  through google it seems that most of the sellers are arcade shops

Take Care,

BobA:
PC shops do not typically sell them because they are for arcade board mounting not mother boards.

so it looks like ordering online is my only choice? Are there any other options than the pen hack?

Kevin Mullins:
Are you just wanting like nylon spacers to mount the boards with ?
Then try an ACE Hardware, one with the drawers of goodies, or Lowes in the specialty fastener drawers, etc.
(or whatever decent hardware is near you)

Why don't you use the copper risers that come with computer cases?  I just drill a small enough hole so I can hand thread them in and work great for motherboards and other PCBs like IPAC, JPAC, Keywiz, GPWiz, etc...
