So, I love my pedaltrain and ive got my new tu3, except, one does not work with the othwr. How do you get yours to stay on there?

take of the rubber on the boss pedal. Then use Dual lock to stick the pedal on.

Can you turn the bottom panel over on a boss pedal and just Velcro the smooth metal plate? I'm pretty sure I did that with my ps-3 when I had one

You can on some Boss, but not all. Gotta be careful that there is enough depth for the rubber, otherwise you can do damage.

I once fu ked up an old boss sd1 taking it off...disnt know you could!

I believe you can also find third party baseplates for BOSS pedals which have no rubber and are flat so you can add your own choice of fastener.

You can buy plain metal bottom plates from Boss.

Wrap the bottom plate in insulation tape, stock the velcro to that. Then, if you sell the BOSS, the bottom plate has the rubber still.

Of course, once it picks up a few scuffs and dings, intact rubber foot isn't going to affect the value much.

I use a couple of pedal boots form ACD Guitars, which make for quick pedal swaps when needed. They come in various colours to fit Boss/Ibanez and MXR pedals:

I just use Velcro brand heavy duty Velcro around the edges like this and it's rock solid

Use a longer piece of Velcro on the pedal and have it going up the sides a bit. 

Or 

take off the base plate and wrap the Velcro round it so some ends up on the face that’ll be  “inside” the pedal. Put the base plate back on and there you go.

You can just glue the rubber back on.

Ooh,good tip Sir!

This might have solved the problem of attaching my Zoom Ultrafuzz (with a large rubber base that's a bugger to get off) to my board properly. I tried all sorts of things but nothing really worked.

Ta muchly.
