Hi guys!
I think many here would like to have their own pedalboards... and its kind of tough to fork out $300 - $400 for a hardcase pedalboard with a noisy power system.
So yeah, I'm embarking on a DIY project, to build my own pedal board... I'll like this post to be a collection of everyone's DIY pedalboard, be it big or small! Post some pics and give some details of the materials used!
I'll start off first with what I intend to do...
1) 800x300x20mm shelf (At any DIY shops)
2) 2 x BBQ wire mesh (The THICK heavy duty kind)
3) Cable Tie (long ones)
4) Ritter Keyboard Bag (Swee Lee, 1000x300x150mm, $35)
5) 2-in-a-row 3-pin multiplug
I intend to drill a couple of holes in the board, cable tie both the BBQ Mesh to the board, side by side. Then Cable Tie all pedals down.
I've thought of Industrial Velcro but I figured, cable tie is SOOOOO much cheaper and its VERY secure, you got to cut to take your pedal out, and you don't stick stuff to your pedal which is very hard to take off later. Of course, cable tie could be unsightly and you need somehting for it to secure to... but i thought, why not? I'm not going to move my pedals ard much anyway.
Then I'll cable tie the multiplug down, attach my 1Spot to it....
Any comments?
Oh yeah, expect some pics soon!
