I am using the handyboard from Gleason Research. It works very well.  Only
problem is there is no obvious way to mount it rigidly into a robot. No
mounting holes or brackets.

What have others done?

True, but you can make a sort of rigid cradle for it out of angle beams
with tiny pulleys with "tires" around them at each corner:
