Hi - I'm Dave in Washington, on the Eastside outside Seattle.
I've been tumbling for about 2 years in my 2nd floor condo, so have come up with some (I think) creative solutions to keep from pissing off my downstairs neighbor.

I have learned a lot from this forum, and from several members' YouTube and other resources, so thank you all.
I need top post a question, so I wanted to be sure to introduce myself first.
Hi, I'm Dave.

Nice to have you.

Hi Dave and welcome from Northern Arizona!

Robin

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."
~ C.S. Lewis
