Has anyone used these? I was looking at them so I dont break up my concrete floor and to dampen noise. Any ideas or thoughts? What do you guys use......maybe im over thinking this.

It might help folks to know the size and type of equipment.

yea that could help.......100lb beaudry

Lots of thoughts on this in other threads here,,,,any of those help?

My approach is VERY "old school".

 

Whenever possible, I like to use big timbers ( railroad ties ) bolted to the frame, ... and heavy felt pads ( at least 1/2" ) between the timbers and the floor.

I have just fitted some shock absorbers / vibration dampers between my treadle hammer and the main upright beam it is attached to at its back, as well as putting some rubber sheet between the wood at its base and the floor. The rubber sheet is actually from a big industrial conveyer belt, and is about 5/8" thick; the dampers were intended for isolating a large air-compressor from the floor. I have only used the hammer once since installing these things and there was a big difference to the noise made and to the shock transmitted to the building. Should have done it long ago...
