My new pedalboard.

[redmax61]

I've been trying to make it look like my Dual Recto. Here is a pic of it with some stuff sitting on it. I'm not quite complete with it, yet. I still have to install corners, permanently mount the deck and power supplies.

**** dude. Thats awesome. Would you wanna make me one? Only like.....30 times bigger? Lol, just kidding.

 

[redmax61]

Thanks! Actually, I do have enough of some of the materials to make another one . . . or three . . .or four.

Your poor recto....! How could you use the diamond plate for a pedal board. :wink:

I'd be interested in one maybe......

How long did it take to make it? Looks really nice.

 

[redmax61]

Thanks!

It took about three days, but that was because I was really taking my time on it. I waited a day or so in between steps for glues and paint to dry. Total time invested was only about 7 hours. Most of that was in rounding the corners. Most of which I did by hand.

Cost of materials came up to about $65. The diamond tread plate was the biggest part of that. It alone cost me $30. If I could find a cheaper material to use for the deck, the cost would come down. As far as the tolex, like I said - I still have enough of it to do a couple more.

If you're interested in having one built, email me. [email protected]

Looks great, Robin.

Where did you purchase the tolex?

 

[redmax61]

Thanks, Jim.

And it just went on sale. It's only $12.50 per square yd. now. I paid $15. Needless to say, that's a good deal.

Very nice. I need to decide what kind of tolex to use on my IIc's new head shell and cab.

Good to see that vibe being used. I hope you are enjoying it. The board looks really cool!!!.

Take care,
Todd

that looks pretty awesome but how do you get the pedals to stay in the board? I would be interested in one what tools did you need to build one?

 

[David.W]

Im interested in how your going to fasten the pedals down, and how your going to feed/wire your power supply.

Wouldnt that look geat with a black diamond plate, and it wouldnt even be an overpriced Mesa option. :lol:
