Hi all, for those who are interested.. made a board to mount the Helix on. I do have a pedal train board that would fit it perfectly, but this would add too much weight, and too much height at a steep angle. As I play a lot of theatre shows in pits, which means i'm sitting down, this would have placed way too much angle on my foot which sits full time on the expression (volume) pedal. I'm not the most handy of people, but i think it'll work nicely. Really all i wanted was two basic things ; handles to help gripping when taking in and out of case (why doesn't the chassis have some indents into the chassis to act like handles?!), and to raise it slightly off the ground just in case of spills etc. I got a piece of plywood cut to size at local hardware, a couple of cupboard door handles, some rubber feet and a can of spray paint. I sanded the corners to make them nice and round as not to damage my case (Mono soft case) and i put extra feet underneath to cater for under the expression pedal. only issue is I chose a grade of plywood that was i think one grade too thin. I'll see how it goes but if necessary, I'll remove the hardware and re-do it with a slightly thicker piece. It's super cheap and very easy to re-do, took me next to no time. Particularly when the hardware store cut the material to size for me. (300mm x 600mm) mounted the helix to the board using 3M Dual Lock. i think the materials in total cost me about $30AUD ($20 USD) :)
