Excited to receive my package. I open up the box and remove my miner. At the bottom of the box I notice 4 loose screws in the corner. I pondered to where these could of come from where they could of come from to all end up next  to each other in the same corner.

To answer this riddle I decided to remove the side of the case. Upon do so imagine my surprise when I see this.

Imagine my shock at seeing the heat sink placed like that wedged between each other. I now realize where the screws should of went before the builder didn't put them in. I then try to move the board away. BUT I CAN'T!!! The board seems wedged in. I decide to remove both boards and attempt to de-wedge them outside the case. It is at this point I realize that it is not because they are wedged tight that I can't move them but, the fact that the person who built it has screwed 2 screws into each heat sink through the holes on the case for the bottom heat sink. So I can only imagine the person must of had to wedge them together and put real effort into managing to get the screws in.
