Whoah whooohah. NOT _ PRITT—TEEEEE? [[splutters, goes in to convulsions]] It's only one of the best ever wayyyyysss devised of attaching a box of eeeelectronic-kal sound-making mayhem upon which one can freely trod upon, Nee! STOMP! UpOn ! and as such is utmost pleassssing as can be set upon the rods & cones giving pleasure to the gelatinous globules found to be lurking inside any cranium – be that of a pan troglodyte guitareeeesstuh, or indeed erectus bassius homo sapien!

It's beautiful in my eyes. There's another guy on TB who custom builds his own pedal boards (CCouch7) using bike chain links and I tell you his boards are works of ART! You'll find a few others doing the chain link thing, too, when you do a search.




I might try this on my latest pedals, unfortunately the semi-tropical weather here kind of acts like a heatgun to the glue for most of the year, so the velcro is all hooked up, but the pedals may not be.

I was surprised by some of the locales where people are having problems with velcro glue:: not hot, not tropical, not humid at all.

thanks feral feline!! I say its not pretty cuz of all the drill holes I put in it from rearranging it a bunch of times this last year, but thanks, I do dig my setup now!!

Maybe it's also down to climate, do people having problems live in warm places?

yeah, I really think it has to do with climate, I didn't have any issues in El Paso(desert)with Velcro
edit: and being in a tropical place gives me alot of other horrible issues to contend with, like mold and or rust, electronics in my basses getting weird...i swear this place hates electric instruments and gear!!!!
