Has anyone developed some clever ways to make attach points or mounts for
small items? seems like there must be an easier and faster way than bonding
a machine screw through a block of wood and covering it with fiberglass.

[You can always use Click-Bond fasteners, but at $3.00 per stud, they do
get a little pricey.  When I wanted to install studs to hold the adel
clamps for my hydraulic lines, I used a 3/4" hole saw to remove a
circle of the 2-BID pre-preg inner skin, then potted machine screws
directly into the cored-out area of the hole... covered the hole with a
2-BID patch with the screw sticking out of the center and found it to
work quite well.  When I cored out the area to accept the screw I undercut
the nomex so the flox would extend about 3/16-1/4" beyond the hole's
circumference.  Works for me.   <Marv>         ]
