I have a t2 and in order to make it not flip over and move around on the floor when I pressed too *** the pedals I did this.... Get a sheet of beaver board (3/8 thick). (4x8 sheet) cut it about 6 feet long by 4 feet wide. ----------------------------

_______________ I then drilled holes in the outside lip of the pedal unit in the corners and drilled them through the beaver board and attached them with bolts. This way I can put my chair on top of the board and it holds the pedals in place. If you make the sheet less than 6 feet long half of the chair slides off and it can be a pain. This works great for me.

What I did to remedy my T2 pedals flipping over was to drill two holes in the base of the pedal unit on the side opposite my pedals (thin side) . I then simply screwed it into the floor. My computer is in a carpeted room. This method is not recommended for a concrete floor. Ha-ha

In it's previous life it was a small shelf. Then I used black duct tape to mount the T-2. Finally, I attached velcro strips to the bottom side. (carpeted floor) With the combination of weight and velcro, the thing does not budge.

I have a long wooden VHS cassette holder on my floor, packed with tapes. I simply moved it so one end sits on the capacious left side of the pedal unit.
