I'm assuming that the screws are soome kind of standard size, and that I can find replacements for the spacers if I know their dimensions. I have removed the back cover at least a dozen times and have already lost two screws and have broken spacers . (One was broken when I received the notebook) If I knew what the specs were, I am sure I could buy them online here (U.S.).
Perhaps, in future devices, slightly larger screws could be used.
Also, would it be possible to buy another bottom cover? I would love to try putting a hinged port over the areas with the switches (emmc, serial, reset button, emmc socket) so that I wouldn't have to deal with the ten tiny screws.... :-)

Buying replacement screws from the Pine64 store is great, but through no fault of theirs (I know it's a small volunteer operation) orders to the store can often take weeks to get serviced, and then yet more time to ship.
I placed an order on the 29th and it's just shipping today.
This is NOT a whine about the store, but a suggestion that for things which should be able to be purchased in a standard way as a community service it would be great to have the specifications available so we can get them more quickly.
