Cold Fusion 12-30-2005, 09:54 PM Very very nice. I only wish I could do the same for my 9' tall Bridgeport. HogDog 12-30-2005, 10:04 PM Very very nice.

You could...first start with a shower stall...j/k LOL HogDog 12-30-2005, 10:12 PM I still need to coolant proof a few things...move the lathe, X and Y axis motors 180 degrees about. feed thru's for wires and hoses. The list just gets longer and longer. Cold Fusion 12-30-2005, 10:59 PM How thick was the Plexi that you used? HogDog 12-30-2005, 11:09 PM How thick was the Plexi that you used? .085" wall and doors. .110" roof Doors are kinda floppy. 110 all around would be nice.

Does your enclosure reduce noise to any extent? HogDog 12-31-2005, 10:33 AM Does your enclosure reduce noise to any extent? It does to an extent. The high frequency noise is alot less, but low freqs will always get by without futher dampening. I have the right side adjecent to an inside wall...lots of noise.
