Built my first pedal board

Forgive the naff pedals I had none this time last week. Have another Boss DS2 on the way and hoping to find a cheap boss tuner and power supply as I only have an eBay cheap psu. I have mounted the pedals using thin bolts through the board into the original bottom cover holes of the pedals. All cabling is routed through the board and it's a ramped type setup as I mostly play sitting down. Made out of an oiled piece of crappy plywood I found in the attic. It's not pretty but it does the job.

    It took me a while to get used to it @sarge but it's great now. One problem is everything starts to sound like Chris Isaacs wicked game, fuck knows why! I have 2 more Boss pedals and another cheap one on the way. I just bought a mixer so I can use a mic and I've added a pickup to my dreadnought acoustic so am going to use that through it too. I might upload something at some point but would expect a barrage if lols.I'm pretty proud of my progress, we worked out last week by the receipt from my first guitar, I have not quite been playing 7 months yet. @moss as I said it's my first pedal board so order is how they fell, the Looper last as I presumed the other pedals would need to go through that. I don't really know much about them so would welcome advice if you are offering?

    Conventional wisdom would say overdrive -> chorus -> delay -> looper but do feel free to experiment - I'm using reverb before everything at the moment!

    @moss is there a reason for that order? Beyond the Looper I didn't even know it mattered at all.

    Each pedal adds its effect to the ones before it - this demonstrates it quite well

    I see so it's not set its just preference. Cheers will play about
