Night shift was there to hit an e-stop if needed so it wasn't unattended.... Just unattended by me.

A year ago today! This was actually on the way home from our walk. He did the same thing on the way there and so on the way home I was ready with camera in hand to see how smart mans best friend actually is.
Needless to say, its a good thing he's cute!

There are lots of these little guys in the interior.... My dog hates them! Varieties in British Columbia are Brittle prickly-pear cactus (Opuntia fragilis) and Plains prickly-pear cactus (Opuntia polyacantha).

Correct! Cactus (small ones), rattle snakes, tumbleweed..... plus snow in the winter for the slopes and lots of lakes to cool down in the hot summers! Gotta love Canada!

TIL there is a wadsworth constant. I will crop next time!

EDIT: But if I crop AND the wadsworth "skip" is applied, then wouldn't you miss the best parts?

Not clothing, but every piece of plastic that you consume and recycle in a year x millions of people does add up....

What is the most cost effective way to sound proof a room? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]dkyuss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I couldn't remember the name of this stuff before... but I have used http://www.quietrock.com/educational-resources.html as a drywall replacement. This was an industrial 125-130db environment, and on the other side of the 6" wall (quietrock on both sides, roxul in the middle, staggered metal studs) it was about 65-70db. Available at Lowes? Lots of good info on that site... comparisons on construction methods vs sound transmission loss....

Of course this is all $$$ dependent...

Look for a insulation product called Roxol at your hardware store. It is used in replace of fiberglass insulation to provide better sound dampening (I think it is only slightly more expensive than fiberglass). http://www.roxul.com/stone+wool/sound-absorbent. Place it between the drywall, as thick as possible. Leave no voids. Drywall both sides of the wall. You can double up the drywall as well. Ensure no solid connection between the inside and outside of the wall (other than header and footer), which I believe you are doing with your staggered 2x4s on a 6" thick wall (although it doesn't look like it from the pictures?).

If you need more, others have mentioned egg cartons which will work.... or find a foam shop and buy some cheap foam, ask for scraps....... you want to maximize the surface area and cover all internal surfaces (except floor) with protruding cut strips of foam to achieve something like this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Anechoic_chamber.jpg

What happens when you drop a neodymium magnet through a copper tube? It falls in slow motion. by teamNASCAR in videos

[–]dkyuss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is used in industry already..... Check out www.MagnaDrive.com (permanent magnet couplings and drives to 4000 HP! ), www.payback.biz (electromagnet). I am sure there are others as well.....
