So I am needing to test the components of an old machine but have no case to put them in. The goal is to build it on my desk. I have tons of antistatic bubble wrap I was going to lay down but was wondering what would work to create space so the mobo doesnt melt the bubble wrap...

Any othe precautionary suggestions are welcomed. Ty

Non-conductive material; I usually bread-board in the motherboard box, but a piece of cardboard is just fine. Wear rubber sole shoes to minimize picking up static.

Socks on carpet is the least advised, whereas working on the kitchen table/counter on linoleum is much better.
