What do you use to mount pedals to your board?
So after wayyyyyyyyyyy too long, I've moved on from assembling my pedals on a piece of ply wood (every time I play a show
) to having a nice pedal board/case. However, the non-pedalboard side is very deep, and I need a way to hold the pedals in place when I'm carrying that sucker around.

Re: What do you use to mount pedals to your board?
Not really a mounting solution, but you could line the lid with some thick foam padding. That should put pressure on the pedals, and keep them from moving around when you're moving them.

Yeah, that was the basic plan. Plus, when I play shows, there will be room for cables and stuff, too.

You break the links, screw into the four corners with screws that are already there then MOUNT on to your pedal board....

This is exactly what my set up is. The foam I have is pretty stiff and keeps everything in there tight during transport.

nope. Velcro For LIFE. the super heavy duty stuff they sell at Home Depot. DO IT.
i think it was Sousie, but someone i lent a PolyGrace too said, "soooooo..... i had to use a SPATULA to get that thing off my board.".
gave me a happy.
plus, if you end up with micro BB sized pedals the tiny bit of velcro that you can fit on there works FOREVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRS.
