Hello,
I received my kit last night and just started assembly. The step-by-step instructions ( http://imgur.com/a/fgDPR ) are very helpful.
The rear panel I have looks different than the one shown in the step where the (6) M5x12mm buttonheads and T-slot nuts are are added. I have two smaller offset holes which seem to match two holes on the Arduino electronics, but it's not clear how to mount the board.
Question 1: Does it matter which side the offset holes go, left or right?
Question 2: Is there still a plastic holder for the electronics as shown in the instructions? I didn't get one, which might make sense if a newer mounting method has happened before any documentation changes.
Thanks!

Re: Mounting electronics on the rear panel
The new version doesn't have the plastic holder, and the electronics mount on the 2 holes I think your talking about. You got 2 extra rubber washers that are used as spacers between the hardware and melamine if you look in the kickstarter kit changes imgur album you can see the mounting without the plastic tab.

Re: Mounting electronics on the rear panel
Ah, that helps.
Now I also see that I need a few more washers and nuts, so off to the hardware store tomorrow!
Thank you!
