post your modified Pedaltrain nano/mini's?

Hey guys, reviving this thread and posting my contribution because I've just finished part 1 of my modifications to my nano. After lurking on this + many other threads, I took the plunge, went to the hardware store and finished this. Prototype v1.0.

Mods done:
- Aluminium plate on the front to extend space
- Patchbay with locking In/Out/XLR ports
- DI Box attached
- Doorstop feet for extra height

What I need to do to finish V1.0 is to shim the feet (they're not tall enough on the thick end) and add the power supply cable hole/extension.

As for V2.0, I'm gonna skip out on some holes on the aluminium plate where the I/O is, as well as build the DI/patchbay into a 1590B/BB enclosure. Mainly because watching the wires like that stresses me out, but also because I think it'd save some space.

I was hoping that once this was done I'd have a tiny amount of space for an Aguilar DB925 on the underside but that's looking unlikely, at least for version 1. I'm currently having a couple of space issues with my pedal choice (Boss OC-5, Source Audio C4, EHX Bass Clone, Jam Pedals Red Muck/Rattler Bass, and Empress Compressor Mki), but hopefully once I sort that out they should all fit.

Let me know what you guys think, or if you have any tips that I might appreciate.
