How do people do it without using screws through the back? I know that is an option, but I'd like to hear what people do without screws.

Some people use hotglue, others use clip mechanisms I think, plus several other methods I don't know.

1. Put inch-long strips of styrene around the perimeter of the case, cement to one half
2. Put small amount of hot glue on the tab
3. Put together
Taking it apart:
1. Using a hairdryer, heat each tab for 10-20 seconds
2. Pull apart easily
