I simply have a hard time with advice that is in direct contradiction of the manufacturer. I would not want anyone to follow any advice and damage their gear regardless of my, or other's, personal experience.Absolutely, hence 'At the end of the day, you have to be comfortable with what u do with your board - do what works best for you dude'

What also works well is a slat out of a window shade (the plastic kind). Used those on my M-13 stuck for YEARS no problems.Take a wooden yard stick. Cut two pieces. Put Velcro on them and stick them to the bottom. Leave the feet on.
What screws should be used for us who remove the screws and attach the AX8 to a templeboard, i.e. without velcro?
Tried 2 sets of 4 of those Temple made plates and couldn't get them to work with the AX8. Came unstuck both times. Wound up using screws and homemade brackets. If I were doing it again, I'd go with dual lock velcro. Plates have been great on wireless receivers and probably work well with pedals, though.Not sure, I just used dual lock to mount it on mine and have had no issues with it. Sorry if that is not helpful but I struggle to see the point in those plates, and wouldn't trust them not to come unstuck.
Only used 4. Just seemed like it did not lay flat enough against the board so the plates were "stressed." I can see how a fifth might have helped. I think they come off relatively easy so you should be okay if you have to remove them. Some of that "Goof Off" stuff will take the adhesive off pretty quickly.How many plates did you use and what size ?
I had mine mounted on my Templeboard with 5 large plates fo about eight months without any issues.
Did you let the plates "settle" before you used the board.
The only thing I worry about, is how to get them off my AX if I decide goin' back to my hardcase setup !![]()
If after reading post #2 of this thread you are still unsure, I would suggest contacting Fractal directly. Unless it's from @Admin M@, taking the word of another forum member may not be the best idea.
I say don't use velcro at all. IF you are using a plywood-bottom pedalboard or roadcase, use tin strapping and screws instead. Like this (one for each rubber foot).

Robboman sorry to "awake" this post.
But can you tell me where did you get that tin that you "attached" to the rubber feet? What are the madee of? Aluminum?
Thanks in advance
