Installing taller feet on a pedalboard

Sparks

I bought a Pedaltrain board but couldn’t fit my power supply underneath. So I drilled out the rivets holding the small feet on, popped in a rivnut and screwed in some taller feet. 

Can point people to the parts if they want to try the same. Not that hard to do.

Very neat job.
Looks like it could take castors, might make for an interesting gig

Yes please. I did a similar thing recently using rubber door stops but with screws going into wall plug tubing - not 100% secure,

You need some aluminium rivnuts, like this:

You have to drill a big hole for them (my M8 ones needed an 11mm hole. Then you can fit them and pop in some feet like this:

To fit the rivnuts you can buy a £40 tool or bodge it like this (the metal bar with the hole in it was key, I found - I used a bicycle chain wear indicator):

Ideal for a skatepunk band.
