You can ground it to a metal case with screws and the mounting holes or use the ground pad and wire it to the 510 ground washer.

You can just use the 510 ground and use it as the case ground and mount the board however you want. Using the fat daddy 510 included ground ring and tab to solder to.

You can't solder to aluminum and epoxy isn't the best choice for stabilizing the wires. Small dab of hot glue is plenty to keep the wires stable and it's less permanent.

Another option for grounding is to drill and a tap a hole in an inconspicuous location and solder the ground to the screw.
