    Ingersoll Rand IQ20V Brushless...Any other tools coming?

    I've had my first set of IR impact, driver, drill, etc. for over 20 years. The battery for the small driver finally stopped charging and I'm looking to buy into a new set. I hate buying without knowing if something new is going to be released soon. There is no information on new releases in the...

    Sound Proofing

    I've been doing a fair amount of research. As you can imagine, there are lots of opinions on Quietrock and its effectiveness. I re-watched the Holmes on Holmes episode where they install a QR wall and it was impressive. Skip to 7:00 for the final test. But, it looks like an extra layer of...

    This probably won't work as the grinding parts are all varied sizes, depending on the project. I won't need total studio silence as the neighbors aren't too close (big hedges, fence, and small side yard separate us). But, I don't want to wake up the kiddo in the house. Fortunately, his...

    Sound Proofing

    Thanks for the input. I've used those panels before for a different project. I was trying to build a light, moveable generator enclosure. Unfortunately, those rigid foam panels did little for sound attenuation. They lack the mass as you stated. What's interesting though is that if you look...

    Sound Proofing

    I need some soundproofing for my new garage. I don't have pics yet because we don't move in for another month, but I thought I would get a jump on the soundproofing I need to do. Here's the situation: I do metal working, welding, etc. and am moving to a new neighborhood where the neighbors...
