    Welcome to the IHoP

    Like peas and carrots ! Come on Matt, year round veggies, it's like I was destined to go to Texas Not just Texas; Oklahoma, New Mexico, Arizona, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, the Carolinas, and Southern California, along with any of the Central American countries. With the right greenhouse though you can grow veggies year round pretty much anywhere

    * Ask Don of SDS *

    Last I checked (and its been awhile since shop class) most car floorboards are usually 16 or 18 gauge, which is in the neighborhood of 2-2.5 lb./sq. ft. Are they making floors thinner these days or am I just talking out of my ass? First of all, I see an error in what I said - doubling mass gets you a 6 dB reduction. You also start to get into the difference between a rigid and limp barrier. The point is still worth keeping in mind. I'm not sure what's being used on floors now. I do know that I've yet to lay a barrier on the floor and not been able to hear a difference, but it is less of a difference than you get when adding it to the thinner and lighter sheet metal used for door skins, quarter panels, etc. I don't know what they told you door skins were made of in shop class, but if you've ever handled a new one it's shockingly light. Door skins were 18 or 20 gauge and floors were 16 or 18 gauge, but those cars were predominately midsize and fullsize American cars from the 70's and 80's the teacher pulled out of a junkyard to teach us how to weld and do basic metal work; a whole lot has changed in the automotive world since then.

    Main reason I ask is my parents were considering some "outdoor speakers" for the back patio, figured I could make 'em with a DIY bookshelf kit for cheaper...*continues browsing* something like a Zaph TM kit

    Honestly, wtf is the difference between an outdoor speaker and a regular bookshelf? woofer material?

    Seems neither were used and alcohol might have been a factor (he was riding, not driving, but still)
