I bought a CF adaptor from amigakit and now want to mount it where I can pull the card.
I've seen "L" bracket, but the ones available to me have mounting holes in wrong spots.
I've also seen the 3 1/2 and 5 1/4 mounts on ebay (way over priced) IMO.
Does amigakit sell either? Didn't see it on the website.
Or does anyone have another solution?

It isn't (I have one)
But the CF card is sticking out about an inch, so there are no problems accessing it. No hot-swapping, though, just to have that mentioned.

Thanks for that.
But as I said, I already have the Amigakit cf adaptor...
Just need hardware to mount it on.
I think I might like the front bay 3 1/2 type.
Thx again

Update to CF card adaptor mounting kit.
I found a 5 1/4 to 3 1/2 and 2 1/2 with a space for a compact cd (read laptop cd/dvd)
After it arrived I discovered the holes on the cf adaptor are even smaller then the 2 1/2 device holes...
I guess I have to drill them myself. (ouch)
AmigaKit, any better solutoions???
