One other thing I have toyed with is using a 1x2 technic brick, sideways. There

I think is so useful.

But unless you're already building a sideways SNOT car (did that for a tanker,
long long ago, not my best work) it's not particularly convenient or sturdy.

I used this part to atach a 9v train motor to a train baseplate, with the motor
centered on the wire hole.  I wanted the motor closer to the center for a My
Train steam engine.
