    Was just thinking the same - is it only me who got back from the guitar show and got straight on it?

    I do have the wood resting in my room - I might get an opportunity to saw this weekend. But no chance I'll get anywhere near any paint!

    Quick and dirty build here. 

    Few runs in the Lidl paint, but who cares? It’s going to be covered by Velcro anyway.
    Tempted to throw some glow in the dark paint along the extremities to show the way on darker stages.

    Nice and easy to build. Feels robust and well up to the job.

    Sorry about the mess in the background. Clutter in the shed.

    Red ones are better.

    I've just cut some Sapele slats, giving 15" of pedal space.  Small but classy - not sure it will need the middle support with this wood and dimensions

    Some cool looking boards, the natural wood style would work particularly well for an acoustic 'board

    I was more imagining a reverse Moog style colour scheme with rich mahogany type wood next to the black, but in reality most of the wood will be hidden by pedals from the players POV

     Nice builds @WezV and @mrkb - I'd envisaged an oil or varnish finish for mine. I've just got to figure out how wide it needs to be.. it really is a great design idea.

    Covid got in the way so got round to finishing mine today. 



    Took the picture mid-painting so that run isn’t there anymore. 

    Top tip - drill the holes before you paint as the guide for the holes is very tight. That is what the instructions say but I chose to ignore them.

    just going to let the paint dry properly before putting on the Velcro.

    Today’s far from perfect creation. There’s a few paint runs and I know the wonky Velcro is going to really upset a few folks here. But it should hold a few pedals and that’s all that is required. 
    Edit -and my three year old got to help assemble it, so that was kind of cool too!

    Dinky - I like it!

    The flexibility to build these to your own size needs is great.
