doesn't look very quality. Sorry if anyone works for the company. Id rather build my own. sooo I did.

do you have a pic of your board? I'm pulling ideas together from homemade boards!

Get a pedaltrain, you won't regret it.

I'm not trying to bash anyone's work, but this doesn't look like quality construction to me. Well....maybe the contruction is good, but the finishing is horrible.

I always recomend the MKS PedalPad.

I built one that looks very similar, same angle, neutriks and power jack, except I used wood + heavy felt for the board surface and tolex'd the frame. What material did you use for the board surface and how did you attach the pedals?

I got tired of drilling holes for new cables even though it looked great (small slit in the felt, drill through, pull felt back together), and am thinking about a hard-surface board.

Its just wood painted brown.

The pedals are just siting there right now HA. Its because i need to buy some industrial grade velcro. But if your looking for a way to do this. I think the best way to do this without hard screwing is using 3ms dual lock. ITs like a special fastener. I don't have it because I would have to order online. My area doesn't have it. This is what trailer trash uses, is what ive been told. But even if they didn't its supposed to be awesome.

Power is supplied by a Weber transformer regulated to separate lines for each effect including my wireless.
Whole power supply is under platform and is even fan cooled with a super quiet fan salvaged from a PC power supply.
One AC cord goes to power, one guitar to my amp, one more to the amp's channel switch.
My rig is up & running in 2 minutes flat at gigs. :BluesBros

I've had this guy build me 2 different boards. Very quick, built like a tank. My newest board is on its 3rd setup in the 3 years I've had it and it hasn't shown any signs of failing me yet. My board is custom made and is 40x18 and had a raised pedistel for hiding all the wiring.
