The first step was to drill holes in the bottom of the file box.  To get the holes in the right location, I simply "Match Drilled" through the existing holes in the motherboard once I had it placed in a suitable orientation on the bottom.  I dug through my hardware box until I found four equal length spacer ferrules, and four long #6-32 stainless steel countersunk head machine screws and associated nuts.  I would have liked to install six ferrules, but alas, I only had four.  After drilling the holes in the correct location, I chucked 100-degree countersink into my drill and used it to recess the holes on the bottom, so the screw heads would not stick out.
