Don't use dynamat that shit will just pass the vibration right through. It's designed to make flimsy metal in cars heavier so they don't vibrate. Doesn't work when you sit something on top of it that vibrates. Personally I'd use jute or acoustic foam. The product bluezdude linked looks solid too.
IO have decided to use a couple of kids 'Swim-Floats' they should defo take the weight no problems and I hope that they cut out the vibrations to.. Iam gunna place some carpet off-cuts under them as-well just for added piece of mind. I have also used Accoustic Sound foam along side of 'Dyna-Mat' in the top section (where fan n filter are etc..) and that does a great job too.. and I may still use some of this foam once I have judged my 'Float' idea and seen how effective that idea is/was :)

Cheers for the idea man! - STELTHY :leaf:

Bubblewrap??
I got impatient waiting on the Polystyrene floats to arrive... Luckily I had another brain-wave, I went down to Home-Base and bought a massive roll of 'Loft Insulation' it was on offer for just £3.00 I pushed as much of it as possible under the Cab. through the holes at the base.. and put a square flattened layer right under the the Res tubs. Now the vibration is next to Zero... and its even quieter in the Cabs room too :) !!! .. Next I plan to upgrade one of my Res Air-Pumps, I am in the midst of decorating at the moment and have misplaced my frickin' camera... I will try n track it down soon and up-load a load more pics for y'all :) - STELTHY :leaf:

Love the cab you got man, its hard to guage the size, every pic it looks either really big or really small, just can't tell. How you liking your thermostated fan? I've never seen anything like that, I almost bought an 8 inch fan today but I'm gunna have a look around for an 8 inch version like you have, the dial down to 25% speed really makes it a good asset.
I have the same exact cool-tube as you. Mine came with an optional reflective insert that goes into the cooltube, this allows you to remove the hood. I use it with the insert instead of the hood. I also rigged it with second mogul on the opposite end so I can fit two lights inside it instead of one! Only cost me an extra 20$ for the second mogul/cord and it works awesome.
How do you air/light seal your doors?
Can we get a shot of the cab from the outside, doors closed just to see how stealthy she really is?

Hi again, well my White-Rhino failed......as predicted! (GreenHouse Seed Co SUCKS!!!) so I have planted a SHINING SILVER HAZE instead, luckily this one popped :) she popped 3 days ago (Jan 31) but I've only just found my card reader to and so took new pics today.. I am going to do my usual "MONDAY-UPDATE's" more pics coming soon! - STELTHY :leaf:

I most certainly am enjoying ....good work again. There is a thread/contest where people are using empty Coffee Cans for their Res and I started a couple of them myself. Great White Shark, Blackberry and some random purple bag seed. We will see how it goes.....

I was trying to Veg up a Cheese for a mate, but again.. no joy n the seed didn't pop! :( ... So I went and got some New Beans 'Dutch-Passion's : MASTERKUSH' .. So I will sew a couple of these and try my luck.. I'am still undecided whether to grow another single big plant or 2 different strains and just get them as big as possible (so they'll just fit) Has anyone grown MASTERKUSH ?? I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts on this strain :) - STELTHY :leaf:
