Really?I thought that the slot was too high to accomadate the header~And wouldnt the chassis for the NB not fit?Cause the header protrudes another 5mm (ish) i think~ I really dont want to have to cram fu the saber too much~

Most things can be modified, assuming you have enough time, patience, and a good set of needle files. There are other solutions than the chassis discs. I'm fond of the tubes that M&M Minis come in.

There are always creative ways to improvise. My PC2.0 is housed inside a piece of a Tee-ball batting tee section that my kids had broken and I cut a piece of it off to make a chassis from. One wrap of masking tape on the outside to make it slide easier without catching the inside of the hilt and it fits perfectly inside a ribbed section. Even has a groove on the inside that serves as a shelf for the PC and a dab of hot glue on each end and its been absolutely perfect. My tiny momentary switches are held in place with a piece of a water bottle cap that I cut up and held in place with an existing screw inside the clamp style box.
Most ingenoius solutions O.o but (correct me if Im wrong) wouldnt it be eaiser to zip tie it to the battery pack?cause I guesstimated the sizez and if I were to lay everything side by side (no overlapping) it would leave around a half inch between the board and switch~is that enough to squish the wires in?(remember cram fu noob here ^^; )
Some people have used zip ties with no ill effects. I'd put a little foam tape between the battery and the board as well, just in case you start to wear down the protective covering on the battery. Repeated impacts and vibration can cause rubbing over time.
