Anyone DIY'd themselves up some pedal boards?

Let's see them.

DIY'd this up the other day out of some old newspapers and brylcreem.
I'm trying to live my life somewhat more portentously.

I have a Boss GT100. Not that traditional, but it has all the boss pedals, and clones of stuff like the Ibanez Tube Sceamer. You can also change their parameters. Sure, it's all digital, but it is a pretty cool gadget all the same.

haha nice one Barge, 96 pedals would be a mission to reach the middle and forward ones. What if you had one bad connector would cause a few headaches. Love the castrol oil can guitar what a winner !

I built one out of an IKEA shelf recently, almost there just need to decide on a chorus pedal and I'm done (for now)

Here's the shelf

And with some toys (work in progress)

Total cost under $40, Velcro being the most expensive part.

cool pedal board Pabs, and you just attach the other adhesive male velcro to the bottom of the pedals ?

I built an IKEA board long before I started my first guitar build, so the woodwork was pretty rough. It's currently in pieces as it was too big to lug around; being big I ended up putting every pedal I own on there, and bought a few new ones, and just barely used them all.

Wokk: use the soft velcro on the bottom of your pedals so you don't have issues removing a single pedal and using it solo.

Tips: Give serious thought to power

Pedals: The TC Flashback (the little blue one) is one of my faves, but glad to see Pablo rocking any TC delay :)
