I am putting mesh on the front of a case. I have a usb/front speaker and the power reset switch and need to put this through the mesh. How could I support this so it stays in place. Usually they are screwed in. I could use heaps of glue, but that wouldn't look nice. Anyone have any ideas? :confused:
 
Modders Mesh? It's just as stiff as a sheet of aluminum. You should be able to mount those to it just like you would a solid sheet.

Pictures would help.
 
I'm going to agree with filthy, make a small plate with all the holes you need for the switches, buttons and ports, mount everything to the plate, and then mount the plate to the mesh. That way you can use some shrink tape or cable sleeving to group all the plugs together and you won't see a mess of wires through the mesh, and it'll be well supported.

The front will be meshed with the Power Switch and USB popping out. I could probably use a different power reset switch, this is just a black one I had.

How its usually attached

If anybody has pics or links of different methods people have done it would be great. I just dont want to spoil the mesh look to much.
