Default Mounting Straps for PSU Holder

Does anyone know where I can get mounting straps? I want to attach a dedicated 12v PSU to my case.

You could check a home improvement store. The plumbing or electrical department should have flexible metal straps you can screw into the case (sheet metal screws). Or drill two holes per strap and run very large (heavy gauge) zip ties through for something not so permanent.

Metal straps won't do since it won't wrap around the PSU well. Do you know what these are called?

Are you refering to stick on square bases that allow a tie wrap?

Those ties that Prosser posted (something like them) would work. I cannot remember what the metal straps are called. They should be located in the same area as "L" brackets and such at Home Depot or where ever. They are approximately 1"+ wide, with holes in the middle to allow for screws. And you should be able to shape them to your psu.

They would look something like my paint drawing, only symmetrical and not something a 2 year old would do!

No... very similar but bigger. It has to be about to support a hanging 8x2x4.5" PSU. Something more like this but with a metal screw plate:

OH!
You want to mount a PS... I thought you wanted to mount wires to your PS!
An off the wall idea... if the PS fan is on the top/bottom of the PS case...
Remove the grill
Use some glue to temporarely support the 120mm fan in place in the PS so the screw holes are located correctly and that the fan won't move in the later mounting process..
Cut a blow hole in the case for a 120mm fan and drill for the necessary screw holes
Place the PS up into the case blow hole and screw it and the grill to the top of the case.

Top bottom of case or where ever

should have a look at exhaust fittings, for example the cloth kind.

it loops around anything, you then do it up with a latch and it has a metal fixing plate for a nut and bolt or screw.
