New wooden triangles with a socket mounted under as the Ciocks, which you can't see, won't power the B3n. The clock is fine as is, but the footswitch for the GK amp needs some support. The lid is a bit stiff to get on as well, but that's only for transport anyway. This is inspirational! Been wondering how to organise my board, which is chaos right now. Building a frame something like this would hide the cable spaghetti and create subtle user friendly angles. Thank you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si600 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 (edited) That lasted 30 hours before it got tweaked! A very subtle difference, the top plate has been pushed up a bit to allow the Zoom to go up and to the right a bit. If, as @stewblack has intimated, anyone else is considering the same sort of thing for their boards I wouldn't mount the power/jack panel at an angle again. It looks cool but means that the top isn't as deep as it could be. If you don't have a case, or a deeper case, then it may not be an issue for you. Equally, if you have multiple Boss format boxes rather than a huge multi-fx then the top space is less of an issue.

stewblack Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 I used a pedal board inside one of those wide pedal board case for my front row pedals the back row which are always on are down in the case itself. So not identical but inspired by your design. I have a minor issue insomuch as the top won't close any more but not difficult to fashion some extensions to the sides of the lid. Finally my board is coming together. I plan on creating a fun one with those mini pedals just for scheiße und giggles, but the main event is pretty much there 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si600 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 (edited) Oh you swine! I'm thinking about how I can do mine again to have an always on layer. I don't think I can, it's only the compressor, unless I dump the tuner. Thinks.... Remove the tuner, put the PSU on top of the 3U Plate and put it below the two 1U plates. It may look a bit odd though. 🤔 Edited August 17, 2020 by Si600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnFitzgerald Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 You know that thing that happens when you're just browsing and you see something you don't need, but you have to buy it anyway ? The one on the left is my self built one, the one on the right is fairly obviously a Roland PK5. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously looks a lot tidier now. 'MK 2' recently completed its trials, and only one small modification awaits before 'MK 3' can be unleashed.

Hugsonic Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Latest itteration. Goodbye to the MS3 and Aftershock (for now at least) and hello to HX Stomp. All still on probation. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbobothy Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 ... one of the tricks is using 3M dual lock and Evidence Audio SiS patch cables. This combo means at least the patch cables can be routed easily underneath the pedals due to the height the dual lock gives, and the short throw of the cable leaving the jack plug head 🤓 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some nice choices. It's so bloody tidy underneath! Mine looks like a rat nest 😂 Where did you get the power extension for the Cioks? I need one for mine 😁 Edited August 21, 2020 by lee650 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbobothy Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 (edited) ... my latest latest build: ... this is my second Classic JR board. Love the relatively compact nature of the board, and with the HX Stomp it should be pretty versatile hopefully.

jimbobothy Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 (edited) ... last one (for now lol). A Nano build I did a short while ago. A basic board, but good for church service stuff whenever I can get back to it!! Edited August 22, 2020 by jimbobothy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewblack Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Hey @Stub Mandrel, I think this is the final board... Hope it's tidy enough now! The pedals along the top in landscape orientation are always on and controlled by the TPM. Not pictured my HB multi fx which sits in the effects loop of my HF amp. At present I plan to sit it on top of the amp rack, but seems a shame not to have its expression pedal handy (footy?). The brilliant design of the Trace has a switchable HPF on the effect loop. Also input level control on the back and effects loop output control on the front. So not only is the Trace fed only upper mids and top (from a crossover) but the guitar effects can be blended and set to only affect the top end of the top end. Endless hours of fettling with this lot. Every sound imaginable from utterly dreadful to really quite nice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gaps between the 3 planks didn't really hold the pedals well so I added a fourth plank. I also trimmed 6" off the width when I realised I don't really need the LMB-3 and the ACP-1 together. I also made it a two tier board to make it easier to access the top pedals with my size 8s. Still need to work out the nest way to fix the S8 underneath.

Luvin the super compact board 👍🏼 I know what some of the pedals do, what’s the signal chain please?

glassmoon Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Not the neatest, not the flashiest, but I think I'm about done for now... I've gone from a huge board, through dozens of iterations, and this is where I am, for what I need... Well... for now 🤣 Path: Carl Martin Compressor/Limiter > Boss TU-2 Tuner > TC Electronic Nether Octaver > K.I.T.
