Trouble mounting my power supply

[Reichbaum]

I need to raise my power supply so that the 9V inputs are above the bars of the pedalboard. Any suggestions on what to shim between the power supply and the board to raise it?

Can you mount it sideways and use small “L” brackets?

I use heavy duty rubber feet -and run a redundant supply underneath.

Here's an old board of mine.

I would approach this differently. It looks nice and neat tucked between the rails. Why not carefully mark the outlets and drill appropriate holes in the rail? This would assume you're "married" to that PS.

Yep, if he looks at my pic above -I removed the case and screwed it into the pedalboard metal like you also suggest. The Strymon Ojai even comes with drill templates

Bigger feet also allows for the AC cable to traverse under the pedal board (see my last pic) instead of through or back over the top (which is terrible)

You can even use a piece of balsa to put under the supply.

I had the same problem with my pedal bay 40 and the Cs12. I put a foam rubber under the rails
