I use a DC brick for power http :// www .sweetwater,com /store/detail/DCBrick
As for the board I use a piece of display cloth glued on a piece of plywood.
The cloth is nothing more than the fabric half of Velcro I just use spray
glue. ( 3M 77) . The self stick Velcro can be bought at any hardware store.
The display cloth you will have to do a web search for.

I'd say if you have a board in mind that is designed for the PP2, go with
that. I read other responses suggesting the VS One Spot. I seem to be in
the minority, but I find the One Spot to be much noisier than the Voodoo
Lab. I can hear the whine of the switchmode power supply ... particularly
when I use daisy chains. IMO you'd be better off staying with the PP2.

Build up yourself one of these and forget mounting the power supply
altogether -

I have a four channel one and use a 1-Spot to power my three Foogers,
Morley PWVO, Boss Tuner, OCD, and Boss DD-6. One cable, and my wall
connections are at the wall.

I'm happy with my four channel snake, but I could really use a seven
channel one and am thinking up how I would to rig one.
