mounting a helix to a temple board is crazy

As much as I like Temple Audio pedalboards, I find it surprising that the larger openings are too small to fit IEC / MIDI / XLR plugs. I always custom-fabricate all of my own cables, so this isn't a deal-breaker for me, but it also means that once I've soldered the plug on a cable, I'd have to desolder it (or cut it off) to move it to another spot on the board. It would take a pretty small manufacturing change for Temple Audio to address this, as they could just reprogram the CNC pattern for the holes.

Nice build!!! I like the idea of those flat plates underneath. There is a lot of space under there that goes to waste if you have something like the helix mounted over a large area. I mounted a desktop wireless base unit under mine on the left side and placed power in the middle of the board and have usb neutriks connectors for connecting a helix, boss, and a Matthew’s effects futurist. I’m having a flip up bridge built for the right side so I can mount a few more pedals underneath and have space for the boss and something else in the top. This has given more ideas about how I can maybe get a few more pedals added preferably midi based so I can control them without seeing them.

I almost went Temple Audio to mount my Helix, and seeing this piece of art, makes me glad I didn’t 🤣 the amount of work you did just in finding the right connectors is exquisite. I don’t have the patience you have! Great work!!

[@joegiordano.76]

Yeah. I ended up going to the 43” one. Making it even bigger. Cool system. But expensive with all the “accessories and connectors”

[@dylanhoward718]

Wow. That seems like a nightmare.

[@spoiledsk]

This is a very cool build. Gave me a lot of ideas for my rig. Thanks!

[@noveltycrusade]

Cool trick with the custom screws 👍

[@towardstar]

youre a mad man for running a mac mini on your board. Can you make a video on this?

[@AlexAvigliano]

What size are those Chicago screws ?

[@noecueva3417]

Following. In case we get an answer.

[@matthewdurham4365]

What did you end up doing to cut the holes bigger for the power cable and the XLR connectors? Very helpful video by the way. Thank you!

[@Guyallknowing]

how did you go from IEC mains to the Hi5 PSU? I see the Hi5 > 12V > ACMOD > ??? > IEC Main. I'm a totally new to building pedal boards. your video has helped me a lot so far.

[@coltonkrokroskia1044]

Same! he must have used an adapter or something. So confused

[@ericscholidon7745]

Where do you get the neutrik connectors? I cannot for the life of me find them only the face plates

[@HandsyMcGiggles]

I am actually doing the same thing to my Temple Audio board! What screws did you use to mount the Punch plates? The original screws seem to small when I try to attach it.

[@danielzonjee]

Where does the power cable from the helix go to? Does it also go to the power supply or does it go out seperatly?

[@joegiordano.76]

The helix goes into an IEC 2 way splitter and then connects to the temple audio IEC input

[@TheDanielGuevara]

Where did you order the pre-soldered xlr connectors from?

[@joegiordano.76]

In Canada. A place called AV Shop

[@crescendo33]

Hi Joe are this size temple Audio pedalboard is 34" x 12.5" ?

[@GreccPerspective]

I have a temple audio duo 24. You can make one really nice without all this. This seems a bit excessive. Just play and have fun

[@alizulkifalahmed9315]

Hey there, where did you get the USB Type B module?
