Show me your compact pedalboard setup

Yet. in this case, I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York ;-) and still a'Murkin!

If USAians would check out some our stuff (Traynor) they'd probably be pleasantly surprised. We've been around since '63 and are still owned and operated by the same people. We are a family :) I've only been working here for 30+ years

Ha. I never noticed your signature and that you work for them.
If you took all the Yorkville/Traynor stuff out of my place nothing would work!

Now talk them into a TS-50B reissue with about 10 times the wattage please.
 
This thread has been a great inspiration. I had a big board and I'm looking to downsize. I think I can narrow it down to about 6 boss/mxr sized pedals. My question is, what's the best way to mount the power supply?! I'm looking into the truetone cs7 or mxr iso brick.

Looking for a smaller board as well. It looks like the nano+ is hard to find. Any other suggestions short of homemade or improvising?
I really like my Voodoo Labs board. It will take a couple different size power supplies underneath. Very neat.

From Trutones site ;The low-profile design of the 1 SPOT Pro CS6 allows it to be mounted under flat pedalboards like the Pedaltrain® Nano and Metro series. However, the compact design is also perfect for mounting on top of pedalboards, serving the dual role of a power supply and pedal riser.

I just realized how lazy I was. I mean, I have Google.......anyhow, much appreciated!!!
 
Couple pics of my current setup:

downgraded from a PT-3 and didn't change in like 5 month. these are my core pedals for the jungle/drum'n'bass/electro sound (octaver -> bugcrusher -> fuzz -> filter -> pitch vibrato -> detune/chorus). also started busking, so everything is battery powered (10.000mAh Anker battery pack with 5v to 9v converter into daisy chain underneath the nano+).

Still fighting the urge to add another nano board for tremolo/delay/reverb :nailbiting:
...but after all this years lugging around too much gear, I just resist. Simplicity rules!
 
Yo Compact Pedal Peeps! I am working on a new, super compact board... I only need 12" of horizontal real estate -- Pedal Train nano is 14" wide as is the Mono Lite... I don't want a molded plastic thing like the Gators... I can go home made of course -- anything smaller than a PT Nano or Mono Lite?

T-Rex Tone Trunk is 12.4" wide and comes with a carry bag. T-Rex ToneTrunk Minor - 6.2"x12.4" Pedalboard with Gig Bag

Exactly. I would make a board from a cutting board before I spent that much. It's just me.

Same - You can get a small laptop case from Amazon or Goodwill for like $10. Upcycle an old clipboard, cutting board, shelf, scrap of plywood or whatever else velcro sticks to and call it good.

But I don't fault anyone for going with a Pedaltrain, Mono or the like. There is a more professional perception to a manufactured rather than DIY solution.
