REFLECTOR: Hardpoints for fasteners

[Jorge Bujanda]

I am not there yet but now that the topic comes uo
  I have found nylon
screws and nuts available on the net (vibration resistant/non-magnetic).  I
am thinking about embedding nylon nuts, per the method below, to attach
nylon clamps inside the cabin for wiring and support of other light items.
I have also found nylon ties with a hole for a screw that could be attached
with the above setup, although I like the first method better.  Anything
that should concern me about this setup?  

Regards

Jorge

I drill out the inside skin/foam with about ½” dia, then I set a stud (bolt)
in there with flox  could also set a nut in there I suppose- I did that to
attach my throttle quad to the fuse side- used T-nuts for best grip.

Dumb question, and the answer is probably in the manual.  For cable fastener
location for the inside of the fuselage, the factory says to always use a
hard point.  I guess this means even for one screw, ala the photo below.
What’s the most effective way to go about this?
