Hello All,
Donner and I went off to our own secret laboratories and, low and behold, we both came to the same conclusion on a a velcro-less system for pedalboards. I'm sure Donner will post photos of his version soon. The materials in my photos will change as better ones are discovered, but it looks VERY promising! Donner gave me the honors of posting this - his genius is very much a part of this idea taking shape.
