You're not the only one who will be running it in a apartment. I already do lol
But yeah, the right thing to do is to take it to an appropriate location 🤭

Finished building my enclosure today, just foam seals and handles for everything after paint, Your table with take some of the vibration from noise, I have my PrintNC at my work which is a retail store so it has to be ‘polite’ I’ve used 19mm Ply with silicone and paint and I’ll keep adding layers until quiet, potentially you could add sound pyramids on the inside, I find the vacumn and smaller bits make the most noise

@MattJonesYT

The sound foam does not stop sound transmission. It only reduces echoes. In order to make it quieter on the other side of the wall you need to add mass not diffusion. Basically it needs to be an airtight and heavy enclosure for it to be effective at reducing sound transmission.

@texasbowhunter2509

Mitch if you would like I may be able to assist you with the fabrication of the enclosure around your machine...If you still live in DFW area you can get the dimensions and we can build over here and design so you can be taken apart and moved then re assembled...
Presently I'm in Grand Prairie so it should not be to far for you to travel...I'm retired so I can help any time...
But in the meantime, your CNC Unit is coming along very nice...Looking forward to seeing it up and running and what you'll be able to achieve...

@justinneumann1492

looking forward to seeing the rest of this

@thefoildesigner

Hey man! Good job so far! I am running a PrintNC too but in my garage. I also have an enclosure, fairly simple, just single wall plywood. Overall the sound dampening is fine, but as you know I am sure noise will also depend on what material you mill, feeds, cutter type etc...Get a good vacuum cleaner and you should be fine. Cheers.

@ivanstokic4619

Gooooood stuff there, thanks!

@islasplanett

Looking forward to the rest of your build Mitch.  Interested to see how you get on with the sound proofing.  What are you gonna be cutting mostly?

@powersv2

It’s wild to me that you’re putting it in an apartment.

@dernicolas6281

Well planned and executed... :) Nice

@piccilos

Hey. I've been looking at building one of these too. I hope you make a review video when you are finished. I'm in north Dallas. I have a tormach and bridgeport, reach out if you ever need parts made for your build.
