The reason this other power supply is so cheap compared to the Diago is quite likely that Diago designed it, subcontracted a factory to build it, and said factory built a couple on the side too... It happens.

As I understand it, there already existed a suitable off-the-shelf power supply but with the incorrect postive/negative feed for pedals.  This is what Martin and myself use after Martin flipped the pos/neg over himself.

Diago ordered a run of the same power supply with the pos/neg flipped at the factory, as did JohnnyShredFreak.  One charges you a lot for the end result, one doesn't  ;)

Here's an older picture of my board:

The Boss Super Chorus has now been replaced with an MXR Stereo Chorus (Thanks Dave!) and the EH Small Stone is now an MXR EVH Phase 90 as I like matching paint jobs. Board is made by a great guy in the States called Chuck Wager http://www.rocksolidboards.com/. Amazing quality and very reasonable as well.

TIM sorry what pedal is this(looked up is it Paul cochrane TIM)

Yep it is. Basically a low/medium gain OD with effects loop and added gain boost at the end. Very, VERY good pedal. Amazingly neutral sounding. Which is not for everyone of course, but I loved mine.

CIOKS Double Jack Power Supply 600mA
Korg DT-10 Tuner
Electro Harmonix Holy Grail Plus, with flurb!
Dunlop ZW45 Wylde Wah - very very brutal sounds, but also a bitch to control, as the signal can be killed easily by going to far back too fast
Hughes & Kettner Tube Factor - picked this up at about half price on eBay, a valve pre-amp in a pedal with two overdrive settings, for one for rawk, and one for metal.

I can also recommend the Diago boards.  I used to have the same size one as Twinfan but bought too many pedals, ran out of space and had to get something bigger.  I've now got one of the Gator boards.  It's ok, does the job.  I ended up increasing the height of it a bit so that my pedal power can fit underneath.

Below you can se my little collection of pedals.

Nowdays there's a T-rex Replica on the board, but at the time I took the picture I hadn't bought it. And I've just got my hands on a Digitech Whammy, which I really haven't tried out yet´.

What's the pedal with a picture of Bender from Futurama on it?

Ta. I know what a tone bender is, good old germanium fuzz. You're talking to someone who has more fuzz pedals than sense! ;)
