Nylon standoffs?
« on: October 18, 2024, 06:26:12 AM »
I'm installing a BFG9060 in my A3000, and the instructions mention that after installation and testing, it is important to install the four "nylon standoffs around the KEL area". What is that? I don't know what these nylon standoffs look like,but whatever they are, I haven't got any. Can anybody direct me somewhere I can get some, or at least give me a proper name and description so I can hunt for them at the electronics store?

They are something like this Nylon Stand Offs.

I personally do not know size you need. You would need to measure between the 2 boards, while installed to get right height, then measure holes to get right diameter.

You can buy 3D printed ones off eBay. I managed to buy some proper ones off a seller on Amibay. I have I. The past used plastic barrel nuts and screws. These are plentiful on ebay.
Maybe something Amigakit could sell in the future? Just a thought.
