Show me your compact pedalboard setup

I will admit that I wasn't that impressed with just one, no matter where I put it. Two stacked is where I got the bug. Then I just bought more for multiple boards, not wanting to move them around. Now they're all on one board because they fit, and why not.
This is almost my exact journey, only I started with two LBA2020s because I had read how the effect compounds when stacked. Now I have five across two boards, but they are in the process of migrating to one board.

Whatever works for you! Can you describe the difference in tone between 0, 2, and 6 of these things?
The effect gets less subtle the more you stack.

Yes exactly. Especially when being pushed progressively harder on down the signal chain.

edit to add: They seem to upgrade the tone of everything they are currently behind. DCX BASS "Plus", Cali76CB "Plus"... I loved them after my JAM Pedals Lucy Dreamer OD... "Plus".

I just assembled this small PB. Now, to power cable it up (Cioks SOL down below) and adjust some settings tomorrow when I have the house to myself ;)

Despite my best efforts I again have more pedal boards than I need. Update required!
Effectrode LA-1A off, TLC back on, Fuzzistor added, search for synthy sounds. This pains me, but I've had a couple of near misses with punters with the LA-1A, and I can't take the stress! the THDI/LA-1A combo is one I really love. LA-1A going to a clean tone/IEM board rather than my main gigging board that I take when I don't know what I'm in for. DC7 underneath, and running extender cables for the G50 to get the antennae out the way. Cave passive pedals passive variable hi pass filer underneath. Homemade board that fits a mono case. Sometimes running the BSW, but also the spark booster.

Mini board hasn't changed much, if any

Remnants of my old main board. Now set up to run with my Bergantino Super Pre, and G50. 2 vacant power outputs on Cioks 4 are to run power to the SP and G50

No one wants to buy my Linden in Australia, and I'm not giving it away. Clean tone/IEM board. Unused Rockboard with Linden, LA-1A, room to drop the G50 on, and Orchid Micro DI.

It's called dirty magic....my Dream Catcher has the same finish.....but looks more muted without any direct light in this shot:

Love it. SushiBox needs more (pun unintended) pics of the custom colors.

I love it-does the 1 trick I want perfectly, reliably & consistently at low cost. I sold my Josh Wah and stopped looking for other env. filters.
Does it upsweep or downsweep? Or both?
 
@arepa_funk What's in between the Cali and the Afterneath?

Make Sounds Loudly Mutron Phasor II clone. Nice thick sweep, sounds great with fuzz before it, as all phasers should be judged imo.

Part of me wants another Nano+ so I can set them up in an L shape. I had a two row board in the past and I really didn't like the tap dancing across rows.
