Here is a trick I use when breadboarding electronics. It makes the electronics easy to handle and move around, and protects it to some degree, especially from shorting out on things on the workbench.
Take a regular polypropylene bread cutting board (purchase at discount stores) and add spacers at the mounting hole locations. Spacers are fixed by countersunk screws underneath,
Wash the board in a strong solution of dishwashing detergent and let air dry. This gives it some antistatic properties. Note: air drying is important. Don't wipe dry.
This works even better if you have a number of smaller boards that interconnect. It makes testing and moving of the modules painless. You can also attach things like JTAG dongles and FTDI interfaces where necessary.
I have been known to scale this up for larger projects using small "stable tables" from Ikea.
