PSA: if you design and build your own electronics and/or cases, standardize on M2.5 screws.
This will make it easier for Makerspaces and fellow hardware hackers to stock screws.
Obviously there will be exceptions (e.g. holes in other people's PCBs which are not M2.5), but M2.5 can work in most cases.
