Trying to clean up the network closet. I’ve got an S33 modem that’s shaped like an almond, and a lutron hub that’s like a deck of cards, that don’t have keyholes to mount with. I’ve seen the 3D printed brackets but that’s not my style. I’m more of a duct-tape-and-bailing-wire kind of guy. The leading plan is some plastic pipe strapping from the big orange store. I’ve used Velcro at work for telephone ATAs and stuff like that but I don’t think it will stick to the raw plywood well. I’ve got a pretty well equipped shop. What kind of mounting tricks do you guys have?

    Perforated galvanized plumbers strapping. While most of my equipment is wall mountable, I used exactly this sort of thing for all the power supplies.

    Likely similar to whatever you’re planning to use with the plastic strap, but more metal is more betterer

      I believe the term you’re looking for is skookum

      Yeah the plastic version of that, easier to work with and I want to give the lutrons rf as much help as it can get.
