I have to make a sound insulated space for my Vibratory Tumbler as I live in a Tower Apartment Block in the City.

There is a difference between sound proof and sound insulated. My other concern is as an energy as sound is absorbed, as an energy it transforms from sound into heat, so I will have to build some kind of coolant system in the space also, possibly.

The information and techniques in the link below should help.

I’m still researching the correct Barrier for my Vibratory Tumbler.

I ended up with the ice cooler option. I went to the Alco store on sunday and found the perfect size Styrofoam ice chest to fit over and around the tumbler. It's a heavy duty one. I covered up the tumbler and it cuts the sound pretty good. I'd post pictures, but it's just an ice chest over a tumbler....nothing special, but it works for my needs.

Hey dscratch,

I'm late to the party, but I was wondering if the minisonic heats up? I know it doesn't have a motor, but does it need to be ventilated for heat disbursal? Just wondering as I'm planning on picking up one of these noisy guys. Just bought a fan and sound dampening moving blanket to fashion an insulated box w/ ventilation for my noisy Harbor Freight rotary, as the styrofoam coolers I could find were all too small for it to fit.

Thank you so much and glad to hear you found a solution to your problem!
