I can even use the board when it in it's case. But I prefer to take it out before I use it.
The case size is exacly the same as the top side of the PPC212. When I store it, I place it on top of the cab and place the head on the pedal case.

All in all I'm pretty happy with it !

Great job! :)

<br />great stuff, planning on building myself one soon too, but not sure about using velcro... anyother ways you guys keep your pedals down?

my friend gave me his old pedal-board, and he took a very thin sheet of plywood and just cut pedal-sized holes out of it and nailed it on top of the thicker plywood, so the pedals stay in place fairly well, but they aren't attached to the board in any way

I just took an old piece of plywood and painted it black using a can of paint I stole from work.

Total cost = $0.

Awesome board! I'm going to refer to this thread for some ideas when I get going on my own in the next few weeks.

Where to start, where to start?

Price of paint stolen from employer: $0.
Price of running shoes: $40+

Price of having to run from the cops due to your chronic thievery: priceless.

You want total low budget....peg board and tie wraps. Run the ties through the holes in the board and over the pedals. No assembly required.

Sorry to bring this from the dead, but what are the dimensions of the board? That's just about the size i would be going for.
