You made me want malt vinegar

All good. Brought it up as I questioned my answer to your question. I am super tempted by the $3k solution, but I have kids now. Time is much more valuable. I'd probably end up settling for the $6k solution.I gutted my last house myself. All good on the mess. Just rather simple on what needs to be done:Walls torn downNew floorsNew windowsNew trimNew cabinetssome new lightsMove to HVAC runs to upstairsNew wallsReconfiguring the kitchen, eat in, dining room & living room spacesTurning a 4th bedroom into the other half of the masters suite and a small officeIf I get lucky, I'll add a garage tooWas more of an "OH SHIT, I could give some input. As I have built a ton of houses and buildings, from breaking ground to the ridge cap. Just about every faucet of the process. Have worked with a ton of different building systems.Sounds like you have it figured out. The questions were to just give you different angles.All good, when I get to the plan stage I will throw them up on here : This might make you laugh after the discussion of the car. If it was my house I would do every lick of the work myself, if a permit and licensing was not stopping me. Building codes here are ridiculously strict though. I would too. Problem is travel & my kids. That and I guess it will take 4 guys probably 3 months so doing it alone would be a LONG process.

I actually will eat clam strips probably more often than any other fast food. As a snack though, not dinner. And by a lot it might be once every 18mo

I hate gaps

Flush mount although the baffle is too small for that to be a benefit other than protection. I also have a really hard time not flush mounting. You will see I was lazy and used the stupid Jasper jig though. Really a dumb design.

The rest is just mass and stiffness. The thicker the better. I was lazy so I wanted one piece.

is that clay or did you copy my duct seal idea Clay, this build was the "what do I have in the house" build. Lol. Outside of a piece of skinny ply I've purchased nothing. Once I start ont he computer I can't say the same, but can say I've had it for 6 months Interesting. At first glance it looked like a thin piece of plastic. Is the 1" plastic material more acoustically dead, and/or have a lower resonate frequency than wood? What are the other benefits? Biggest benefit is that I didn't make sawdust or have to paint/seal/worry.

Considering you just ate at Burger King...Exactly why I picked Wendy's. So once in 5 years I'll wear a GoPro. And I bet it'll be while I snowmobile.

I am about as likely to wear a go pro as I am to eat at Wendy's

And yes by the 18 that denotes a 7". Fits absolutely perfect and super easy in the stock location. I hindsight I probably could have sandwiched 2 3/4" boards together and had better isolation and some more mass, but that was hard to tell and I didn't want to door ding a driver.

J was right, but I expected that. U18's

NEVER

I realize I lied. I ordered the cutting board. That actually caused a 3 day delay. Yellow was the cheapest 1" I could find that was big enough lol

ALready covered up, nothing to see.

Nope.

Or I could do more and spend less time looking at forums

Kid time is more precious with the amount I travel. Job sort of forces me to give up hobbies.

Wish I had more than an hour or two at a time to do something, but it isn't to be for a while

Had to finally run to get a part for the truck today. Needed some plywood so I can bolt some shit down. I don't have any 1/8" laying around.

It's a 1975 Stucco Tudor. Everything about the house is a beast

These are some sexy ass mids, definitely about the nicest gift I've received.

There is zero space in my a pillars. Gay
