    It's just like hooking one up in the case, only it's laying out on a desk (i'd suggest a wooden one ; ) and use the grounding clips between the major components. The grounds on a motherboard are usually where a screw goes though the board, you can see a wide spot around the hole

    The old type power supplies have the switch built in, newer ones turn on through the mobo, just touch a tiny screwdriver to the power pins and it comes on, then remove the screwdriver, only takes a quick touch
