Okay... misleading title. Its not a mount of death, but it is a bit sharp and pointy. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

After reading the Where to mout LEV-O-GAUGE (http://elcova.com/groupee/forums/a/tpc/f/4871031121/m/9071018561) thread I had an idea.

It started with a partition clip. Headliner fabric in the H3 isn't all that different from a cube-a-cage wall, so one of these clips should do it.

I grabbed a few from my office and went to town. 10 minutes later with a bandsaw, a sander, some glue, and a small block of spare maple this is what I had:

And here is the installed result:

No messy adhesive, no screw holes. Once removed no marks are left behind. Not too shabby for 10 minutes labor and some scrap materials. The LEV-O-Gauge hangs esentially verticle and can easilly be moved wherever you feel like it. Just be careful, the pins are sharp. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif
