    I have an enormous pedal board that I'm starting to outgrow, now because of my rig so much but because the arrangement of pedals and the design of the board leaves a lot of empty space. I moved my power supplies and expression pedals off the board and I think I might move the HX Stomp to the floor also. Without every pedal locking its neighbors in place I can create a more reasonable arrangement. I also bought a smaller auxiliary board for either patching other effects in or to make an entirely separate signal chain, I haven't decided yet. I took the time to shop around this time. The board I picked was a quarter the price of my current one and it's 2/3rds the width and only a couple of inches shorter, which is fine because my first board has huge gaps between the top and bottom row. And it's still deep enough for a power supply! I think when I inevitably need a third board I have a cutting board and a wooden lap desk that would make good material if I decide to go that route but I know myself. I'm lazy and cheap so it's probably going to be a knock off pedal train from China.

    I assume the Altoids case is for picks? That's what I have mine in but I didn't think to stick to the board. Good idea.

      Yep it’s for picks :) stick some Velcro on the bottom and you’re good to go

      That's a much better idea than trying to find 'em in my back pocket. Cheers!

    Between those noise reducers and the power supply, you could've gotten a 1Spot combo kit and had change. Much better and more than enough to power it quietly.

      That’s true and a great point I should’ve mentioned in the video, and to be honest I only went this route because I already had a lot of this lying around, and it just looks a bit neater wiring it this way! Superficial? Yes. Do I care? Nah, not really!

    I built my own board but have yet to finalize the layout. I think yours came out great, would definitely recommend doing something else besides the tape - only because long term, that will deteriorate and get sticky residue over everything. Other than that, I think what you've built looks fantastic!
    By the way, what is in the Altoids tin? Do you have some picks or other accessories?

      @@danieljdtaylor Cool, since seeing your video, I've started seeing it on lots of other boards. Don't know if it's a new idea or I just never noticed it before 🙂

    You didn't say if it was worth your time and energy n if you would recommend diy or just buying one which you said you would comment on at the end of part 2

      My apologies, I would say if money is a factor you have to consider when buying gear, it’s worth the time and effort!
