Thanks!!!!

This is the board I have....http://www.guitarcenter.com/Gator/GPT-Pedal-Tote-Pedal-Board-with-Carry-Bag.gc
same board but with power supply included...http://www.guitarcenter.com/Gator/GPT-PWR-Powered-Pedal-Tote-Pedal-Board-with-Carry-Bag.gc
This is great to have as a visual. I am seeing a couple of issues with my current setup. The volume pedal needs cable to run all the way back to the amp, under it and up into the effects loop, so those cables need to be straight on the amp and 90° on the pedals. My A/B box, which serves to permit me to switch between the 6 and 12 string necks with a footswitch, also need to run cable all the way from the pedal to the amps.
I see one of these is going to be necessary...
Ok....
My chain is confusing but I think I might have it down in my head:
6 String Guitar Signal Chain - Guitar 6 String Input - Korg Tuner - Ports 1a & 1b of A/B Box - Boss CS-3 - Marshall DSL40C Input
12 String Signal Chain - Guitar 12 String Input - Ports 2a & 2b of A/B Box - Input of Marshall VS265
Effects Loop Signal Chain - SEND into FV30L Volume Pedal - Boss DD-3 RETURN into rear of DSL40C
And I will need to have space for my DSL40C footswitch - I really never use gain on the 12 string, so I don't need the VS265 footswitch.
Did I get this order correct???

This was my setup last year. Everything is just Velcro-ed down. Very flexible in its layout. It all fits in a carry case.

What is the Line 6 device?

What brand pedal board is that...???
Does this answer your question?
Yep!
Sorry for the dumb questions, but I've never owned a board!
Furman.
Is it common to see the power supplies under the board???

Pedaltrains and copies are designed to have power supplies mounted underneath; previous to those sometimes power supplies were integrated into the board itself (e.g., Boss, maybe that Furman above) or simply mounted on top.

With some email help from Bill Blatter of ISP Technologies I managed to correct the fault in my Decimator G-String II and it's back on my pedalboard.
His assumption was correct and his suggested remedy was effective.
Note also that the TE-2 Tera Echo has knocked the RC-1 Loop Station off of my board.

That layout is really neat! Is it a program?

It's called Click Charts
Note also in the chart that I have moved the EVH Phase 90 from the effects loop to the front end, first after the tuner and ISP front end. It makes the phase effect more controllable and gives me more usable range

Same as before, but the RE-20 has booted the DD-20 from the board.
I just figure that I was only using the tape emulation on the DD-20 (given that I have two delays on the board besides that one) and the RE-20 does a better job of that than the DD-20's tape mode. I will put the DD-20 on the bass board that I am slowly putting back together because I will need a versatile delay unit there. Only issue on the bass board is that I might not have a big enough power supply there for the DD-20

Well, Dave....I may have signed on with another band. If that works out, I will likely condense everything, as I won't be playing metal. So, the attenuator won't be needed, (???) and I will most likely just run my CS-3 compressor and DD-3 delay along with my FV30L volume pedal.
So, the CS-3 seems to sound best in "front" of the amp with the DD-3 in the loop along with volume pedal.
So volume pedal before delay...right???
(As not to cut the tails off? )
Where would you recommend the noise gate??? Up front or???
