I got sick of looking at my power supplies, cables and wires. Waste of space, besides. So I was all set to run to the guitar store and pick up one of those dandy Pedaltrain boards.
Then I watched a video demoing prepping the board. Getting out the power tools for attaching the brackets to the board. Cutting the velcro. Attaching the velcro (and in my case, no doubt screwing it up). Threading the power wires between the brackets and the supplies and the pedals. Peeling the rubber backing off the Eventides and Boss tuner as recommended, and cleaning the bases with goo-gone, so they'd stick to the velcro. Removing the feet from the pedals.
And after all that, basically having the very same functionality as I have with my decent looking home made board where my main complaint is that I can see the wires and it doesn't look especially cool.
So I went and made myself a latte in the kitchen, sat down at the computer, and finished recording an ad project.
There are some things that just don't seem worth spending a day on (yes, I'm the guy who'd spend the whole day doing it).
