Many older games came with slots that you could slide the boards into and out of easily. I've had a hard time finding a good source for these. I'm sure I'm just using the wrong search term or something. I don't like using PCB feet because it is a hassle when you need to remove the board. I've found a lot of "pcb guide rails" but these frequently don't have screw holes in them and, when they do, the slot is on the same plane as the hole. For mounting inside a cabinet, the slot would have to be at 90 degrees to the bolt hole.

Help?
 
Can you rip something on a table saw? I've done that in the past. Also Bob Roberts used to have a sliding clamp you mounted on the inside of the cab with slots to hold a board. Maybe that would work for you?

Found them, the are from happ/suzo. Happ.com, part number 49-0007-01.

i looked for them many many years ago and i just stuck with the midway ones and buy them when they come up for sale in larger lots. i would check with someone that does the 3d printing see if they can make them.

I just bought a bunch of those universal slider mounts and they are great. I put one in Scramble for easy changing of PCBs like Gyruss and Super Cobra and others from time to time.
