The difference between the M3 and 6#32 thumbscrew thread is subtle, so ensure the correct one is
used to avoid damage to your BC1. The M3 and 6#32 thumbscrews also feature an inner thread on the
head of the screw which allows M3 screws to be secured, giving additional stacked mounting options.
Introduction to the screws & brackets
The BC1 is supplied with 5 different types of screw which are used to mount all the various hardware to
the table. All screw threads are M3 except for the 6#32 thumbscrews which are used to attach 3.5" drives
and the PSU.
The BC1 brackets are used to fix additional components to the main body and feature a thick and thin side
which are interchangeable and designed to accommodate various screw lengths and thread depths,
depending on the hardware being fitted.
Note that all the screws feature a thin plastic washer at the base to ensure there is minimal damage to the
aluminium surface at the point of contact. The PCI thumbscrews are packed with extra washers which
should be used between the brackets and main body to minimise damage.
