My interface is shown temporarily installed at the Hill and Dale Foundry for Monotype University 8: the pneumatics are hung from a heavy duty zip tie and the interface board is held in a custom aluminum enclosure. I actually don't recommend using an approach like this, unless the interface board is mounted permanently. The interface board is fairly light and it has a tendency to get pulled and knocked around otherwise.<html:p class="paragraph"/>

Rich Hopkins at the Hill and Dale Foundry has mounted his pneumatics from a pair of cup hooks attached to a pair of furring strips that lower the interface to a convenient height. The interface board is suspended from the pneumatics using zip ties with a mylar backer sheet to prevent short circuits.<html:p class="paragraph"/>

Rob LoMascolo's interface is housed in a luxury condo&#x2026; the photos tell the story best:<html:p class="paragraph"/>
