Okay, my two cents ... On the last board I built, I just put the mounting
bracket flat on my table, placed the spacers over the holes, held the PCB
up, dropped the screws into the PCB and dropped all 4 screws into place.
If the screws don't drop into place, use a small screwdriver to nudge the
spacer over.
In the past, I've used other techniques, but they all involve flipping the
PCB or mounting bracket over and I don't like digging spacers out from
under my refrigerator.
BTW, I assembled one of Pauls MOTM-800 Rev B envelope generators and it
works fine as a "gate only" device.
