PVC insulated wire works quite well. Get the thinnest stuff you can get your
mitts on - there is some available that will go through a 0.8mm hole.
I normally drill one hole on each side of the top edge of the board, then
suspend the board using PVC-coated wire. It seems to work quite well, and
makes it easier to remove the board after it's finished etching.

Later.
