The first step in your trail camera project is to design the
interior layout.
Start by placing all of your components inside your case. The layout
shown above is the example we chose. By placing the camera at the
bottom this will eliminate the need for a shelf to hold the camera.
This by no
means is the only layout design possible.
Note: We used the Pelican 1060 case for
this project. You can purchase
one from www.case4less.com

Next with an awl mark the 4 hole mounting locations for the
Universal
board from the template you received with your kit.

Next drill the 4 holes using a bit size of 5/32". Use either an
electric
drill or a drill press.

Once the holes are drilled you need to counter sink the holes on the
back side of
the case. This will allow a flush surface when you place the
6-32" flat head screws in.

This is what the 4 mounting holes will look like when you are
complete.

Next you can start to install the board mounting kit. Before you
start you may want
to remove the rubber bladder so that none of the plastic chips from
drilling are between
the case and the bladder. Start by putting all 4 of the 6-32"
screws in from the back side.
Put the flat washers on next followed by a nut and tighten firmly.

Next place the 1" nylon spaces on each of the 4 screws.

Lastly put the board in to make sure you have a good fit, but do not
put the
last 4 nuts on to hold the board into place since we will be
removing the
board during the project. Save that for the very last step in this
project.
