I'm going to use brass standoffs. l'll use some small ones (something like 8mm) below the board, and taller ones above. In the picture that started the thread, the hex bolts are only used to hold the acrylic slabs together and some kind of plastic piece is used to attach the RasPi to the slab. I decided to have the standoffs do both functions.
I ordered 4" x 6" pieces which will give me ~1/2" of edge on all sides of the Pine64. The mounting holes on the Pine64 are 5mm in from the corner (on the diagonal), so I'll drill 4 holes in my acrylic slabs at 1/2" + 5mm from the corners and attach the Pine64 and attach the acrylic pieces together in one shot.
Only thing I'm still working on is what to do about the "feet" on the underside. I'm looking for some kind of rubber stick-ons or something so I can have a unit that's less likely to slide around since it'll weigh almost nothing.
