I'm liking the OC-3.
Where did you get those two little connector diddly-bobs?

I've seen those little metal boxes (on the lower right of your board SMB) on a lot of boards on these forums.
As I'm an FX noob I'm curious if anyone can enlighten me as to what they are. A/B switch?, Some sort of modular FX loop?
Just Curious.

I think this one is an effect sequence reverser:
"Like how your overdrive sounds before your phaser but like how your phaser sounds before your overdrive too? Connect them to the ESR and have it either way at the push of a button!"

no offense or anything, i mean, your entitled to not use effects....
but those jokes get lamer and lamer as they get posted, no matter what the forum D:
My pedal collection....
Heres some pics of the Aluminium Board
Im getting the top carpeted tommorow after work, my dad ordered an outlet through work so i can just plug it in with an extension lead rather then have the 4 outlet board cable hanging out the back, and im putting in a funky red glow switch, i was thinking a missile launch one but it lets face it....glowing lights are much more hardcore, oh and i didn't put the handles in the pic because...well...there not installed yeti just put some pedals on it and its a REALLY comfortable angle.

thanks man
theres enough space at the top between where the pedal space lifts out and the chasis for cables to fit through so im going to cut a slit in the "lips" that hold the pedal space there so they can come up to power the dc brick and whammy if i dont drill holes
but im still considering drilling holes for patch leads and what not and putting the dc brick in the under belly but then if i want to change the layout im screwedi could just recarpet but that would be a bitch
but then im pretty happy with my current layout....BAWWWWW im confused
the overall top area is 94cm x 46.5cm
pedal area is 82.5cm x 35.5cm
height at front: 8
height at back: 16.5cm
Maybe add a few strategically placed holes/slots to pass cables through rather than putting them exactly where pedals will be now. I can almost guarantee that your board of next year will be different than your "complete" board this year. Mine has changed several times this year alone.
And make sure you use grommets in the holes. lest your cables rub and problems begin.
It's getting to the point that I think we need a sticky in this forum about how unfunny, unoriginal, and off-topic these non-pedalboards are. Here are some yes and no answers to anyone else who feels the need to take this path:
Yes, we've seen that before.
No, it isn't funny.
Yes, we do want to punch you in the yams.
No, you aren't original, no matter what your mother says.
Yes, right in the yams.
No, you shouldn't be hanging out in a forum that doesn't interest you.
Yes, you are a douchebag.

Usually, yes, they are an fx loop.
A true bypass loop I believe. A way of keeping pedals with bad bypass out of your signal chain or a way to turn on multiple pedals at once.
I think this one is an effect sequence reverser:
"Like how your overdrive sounds before your phaser but like how your phaser sounds before your overdrive too? Connect them to the ESR and have it either way at the push of a button!"

Nope. The reversers are 1590 sized, the one on the pedalboard is just a basic little looper.
Yes, those little silver metal boxes are to bypass certain pedals, in my case, the whole second board. (In theory) That way your signal does not deteriorate as it passes through all the pedals. It also has the added benefit of being able to turn on several pedals in one shot.
