Reddit mentions: The best furniture pads

I think my bookshelf speakers are slightly larger than average, basic 2 way speakers with a 6.5 inch midrange. My subwoofers are pretty big and heavy.

For normal listening and movies it isn't bad. But if you play something with really heavy bass the vibrations become noticeable. I'm still conflicted about the setup myself but I am not unhappy.

I purchased some cork from home depot to try to reduce vibrations and it is okay but not great


I think the next step is possibly some type of Sorbothane. Apparently it is amazing for isolation BUT you need to do calculations based on the weight of your speakers to determine exactly how much you need to use.

Another alternative I am looking at is purchasing a set Isoaccoustics. They look like a gimmick but they got pretty good reviews, and they would also raise my bookshelfs to ear level.

Post back if you end up with some solution. I'd love to hear it as I am in the same predicament.

[Logitech G920] (https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Dual-Motor-Feedback-Driving-Responsive/dp/B016LI8SCG?th=1) - Best setup I could find for under $500+. I really like it. Solid quality, holds up to (ab)use well.

Rubber Pads - I put these on the wheel and shifter to help hold it to the desk better. I was dealing with sliding without them. I use the flat ones on the underside of the mounts, which press against the top of my desk.

[Half Keyboard] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07D6NTPWH/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) - Gives some extra buttons close to your wheel since you'll lose out on some hotkeys.

[Desk Brackets] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LYL14WV/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) - I mounted these to studs in my wall, and on the underside of my desk. I keep my screens wall mounted, and my PC on a platform under my desk. These keep the desk super stable.

edit: Added a piece of equipment.

Sorbothane bumpers are good, but IF AND ONLY IF you pay attention to the weight ratings. Pay attention to them and you're good. Otherwise they are utterly ineffective. Keep in mind the weight ratings go both ways. If you put too little weight on them, they won't work either.

> Supports between 0.5 lbs and 0.9 lbs per pad

The C103 are 25lbs each, so you'd want at least 28 of them. On each speaker. LOL

Something like this would work a lot better - "between 5 lbs and 10 lbs per pad." It's an 6-pack; 4 on each speaker should work well.

Thanks for the update! I just installed this rubber padding and I actually quite like it: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000OQTV2I/


It comes in a huge 24 x 36" sheet so it's plenty enough for a bunch of keyboards. It has a rubbery smell (which makes sense because, duh, it's made of rubber), but after airing it out it will be just fine. It seems to give my keyboard a nice THOCK and I think the thickness of it is perfect. I'm still not done with my build but when I am I will post pictures and a build guide.

Wanted a better way to carry my things to the sessions so I heavily modified and printed a spellbook dice box/dice tray to be able to fit a few minis, a dice box, and a mini spellbook I made using some cheap things from amazon.

If you want to make your own all you'll is need is:

• 3D Printer (or access to one)
  
• This files are the book itself
  
• For the mini spellbook I used this cheap "leather" credit card wallet
  
• For the felt for the dice rolling I bought this self-adhesive felt
  
• For the foam I used this pelican case foam
  
• For the magnets to keep it closed I used this pretty strong magnets

This was also my first turntable. May I recommend a small upgrade that will improve the sound quality?

This may also be a better solution to your speaker / turntable configuration given the limited space:

Shelves

Padding

You can place the speakers on the top of the Kallax with the turntable (normally not recommended), and then cut the anti-vibration padding to fit your needs.

In any event, don't pay the haters any mind, and welcome to the hobby!

You'll need at least one d20 and one d6, though it can be helpful to have one for each player. You'll read the 6 face of the d6 as a 5+keep rolling.

I'd suggest playing it a few times and seeing if it becomes a regular thing for your table before buying a bunch of tokens or counters. You can get the same effect by just writing on the character sheet, or using Post-It Notes or some other homemade method for now.

Torg Eternity can definitely played Theater of the Mind but a lot of folks like to have something more visual. Just like any other RPG, you can use whatever works, like Lego minifigs, random game pieces, homemade tokens, etc. I have all the tokens because I get the Kickstarter box sets, but in the past I've made my own character tokens with online art, a 1" hole punch, and some of these.

I agree! It could be a great coffee table...or a stand on which to put your new (better) turntable. Just buy some felt sticky pads, get a piece of glass cut at your local hardware store to whatever size, and viola! new cool coffee table or stand. You get to honor your grandma and have a cool piece of furniture as well.

Sure. Little small clear rubber/vinyl "bumpers" you'd think to put on kitchen cabinet doors to absorb the noise, or on the bottom of DVD players, etc. I usually see them in the furniture/hardware section of stores like Walmart, the local hardware store, etc.

The ones I got at WalMart are Self Touch brand, they come in a pack of 20, and are 1/4 inch. Self stick (which means they have adhesive on the back -- keep this in mind). They look a lot like these. I thought they were the perfect size, but again I saw a mark on the right side of my screen the other day so they might not be (time will tell -- I cleaned it off, we'll see if it comes back). Ace and 3M also make bumpers/spacers.

They also have self stick felt pads in these sections, but unfortunately the ones I've seen are brown or green rather than black, and plus they compress more easily than the rubber bumpers.

I've also read of people using the feet from their XBOX 360s or their Wiis. See also the neogaf thread regarding the screen scratching issue (Google will turn it up for you).

Hope that helps.

A few years back, I bought some self-adhesive green felt at the Home Despot in the cabinet hardware aisle. They don't seem to carry it anymore, and neither does Lowes, but I found what looks like the same stuff on Amazon. It also looks like Ace Hardware carries it, though whether or not the store near you does I can't say.

I used some of it to re-line some tube rings at one point. That was about 8 years ago and the felt is still there.

Depending on how loose it is, this might work just fine, or might be a little too thick. u/orlet's suggestion of just adding a little tape would probably work fine as well. You basically just need to shim it a bit. Another option would be to get a piece of cardstock, cut a strip and glue it in place around the edge.

One other creative solution I've seen is to get a shower cap, the type with elastic. Those pop right over and the elastic holds it in place.

That's normal. You just need to lift your hand a bit sometimes. What I did was put a little sticker on my W key - similarly to what P1SONET said about getting lost and the F key has a little bump on it, I use the sticker with my fingertips to find the W key and get back into position. With heavy use, it comes off sometimes but I just put a new one on and it works great for me.

I have been waiting 7 weeks for mine, and I have about 2 left (I got the pre-assembled one). Here are the upgrades I am planning, based on joining the Slack channel, reading the Facebook group, etc. I recommend checking out those sites as well.

1. Vibration Dampeners. These are needed because the printer is very noisy. I also have a rubber mat that I am going to put the printer on.
   
   
2. An improved spool holder. Apparently the stock one breaks pretty easily and isn't that good. (Someone else in this thread even said theirs broke).
   
   
3. Pinda height calculator. The number one question I see on the facebook page is around the PINDA sensor. This helps you adjust it and get it set straight.
   
   I also have an enclosure for my kickstarter 3d printer, which is going to relocate to where my Replicator v1 is (which will go in a box) after my Prusa i3 mk2 arrives. I think an enclosure is a must have if you are printing ABS, otherwise you may have layer adhesion issues, especially if you have a drafty room (I do). If you are just printing PLA, PETG, or Flex you probably won't need one. There are a million different designs with Ikea Lack tables that people use. I had some spare 2x4's and plywood so I just built my own.
   
   These are all fairly minor upgrades. Unlike most sub $500 printers, you don't need a lot of upgrades to make the printer usable and it really does well just out of the box.

Is it in high power mode? Also, what is your MK3 sitting on? I've noticed that hollow topped desks (like lack tables) seem to resonate and make the printer even louder. I put some sorbothane feet under my MK2, and that really made a difference. If you also put a heavy piece of stone under the MK3, that should help too. Doing both would probably help even more.

The other thing I did to reduce the sound of my printer was to replace all of the linear bearings with Igus style bearings. Those bearings are drop-in, so it was pretty easy to switch. They have made a huge difference. I used to be able to hear my printer from my bedroom, now all I can hear is the fan (time for a noctua).

Edit: spelling

Team invisibility yo! I could be the worlds first ever nudist bank robber :p They both look like a fantastic prize, but the coasters get my slight preference because they are truly limited edition. I can't exactly get them very easily later :) (P.S. The one thing I would add to the coasters are little rubber feet. It gives them traction and provides an air barrier for condensation if you have a cold drink. Here's some I found on Amazon )

Edit: a word

You could put things like http://shop.hobbylobby.com/products/clear-self-stick-rubber-pads-452045/ http://www.amazon.com/3M-754ES-12-Piece-Self-Stick-0-16-Inch/dp/B001QCXXWS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1290449459&sr=8-1 or http://www.amazon.com/Waxman-Style-Gripper-4-Inch-5-Inch/dp/B000SL0KJM/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1290449484&sr=8-7 around the inside of the box. They should cushion the Plexiglas and unless you're putting a LOT of wear on them, stay in place for quite some time. Depending on the self-adhesive on the rubber padding, you might have better luck trying to find one that doesn't have self-adhesive on it, and using super glue or something similar to hold them on firmer.

ah, good good. Sorry if it seemed patronizing, I just never really know what anyone's knowledge/experience is with this stuff, if any. Seems like you know what you're doing though.

How are the rubber feet on the underside? if they've gon missing, that can cause the machine to sit too low on the surface, not allowing enough airflow underneath. Maybe adding some thicker feet like these sticky ones would help, or suggest a "extended battery" like this (not that specific one, just an example), those kinda prop up the back, allowing for better airflow when the cooling pad isn't around.

I'm betting they are rubber bumpers, but I would be interested to know which ones he is using as well, I haven't been able to find ones that fit well yet.

From the pic, looks like the feet are connected to the shelf pieces but not the desk itself. That's a good choice in case you ever need to adjust move the stands.

You might consider ordering some sorbithane pads to place between the feet and desk, to make them anti-skid and to eliminate any vibrations caused by uneven contact. Check Amazon, it should be fairly inexpensive.

Edit: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0042U8P9C/ $18.90 plus free shipping with Prime

This is not a mat suggestion, but if you are interested in reducing noise, here is something that worked for me. I put these dampers under each leg of my Kurt Kinetic trainer and they work great to prevent vibration from transferring into the floor.

You might be able to use these in conjuction with a mat.

https://global.rakuten.com/en/store/backyard-p20/item/ym3330/

Saw these while I was in Japan and knew they would make great speaker stands.

Then I used Rubber Bumpers Self Adhesive Large - 20 Pack - Rubber Pads for Cutting Board Feet - 1 Inch Square Clear Rubber Bumper Pads https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01G5WX4M2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_VhJkDbVPAFY38

To keep my speakers stable. Took me so long to find desktop speaker stands at a decent price that look good.

A solution I found to make it harder to change knobs, but still lets you adjust them, are these.

Remove knob. Drill a hole in the center of the pad slightly smaller than the pot shaft. Put pad over the shaft. Replace knob.

Stack a couple to really make it hard to move the knob.

Good thing is this mod is easy to reverse without damaging the pedal.

This is what I use with mine. If you find that it flips off too easily just add some grip to it. It’s worth it. I love this light!!!

If that doesn’t work, this may be a good inconspicuous solution -

Clear Adhesive Bumper Pads 106-PC Combo Pack (Round, Spherical, Square) - Made in USA - Sound Dampening Transparent Rubber Feet for Cabinet Doors, Drawers, Glass Tops, Picture Frames, Cutting Boards https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XPCLN23/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_PSz9Ab8415BQ5

If it was a piece of machinery I'd have gone for a foam pad like this. Ideally that's what you'd stick between the source of the vibration and the ground. But it should work for your bed.


You can get puck shaped rubber feet too.


Depending on the vibration you'll want a different hardness. As this is just transmitted vibrations, these may be a little stiff, but might be worth a go.


I can't really vouch for either of these items in particular. And they do seem to report a bit hit and miss with the reviews. I suppose the hard part will be making sure that your bed stays on top of them and doesn't crush the material they've made from.


Also, make sure you don't have the bed against the wall, because the vibrations will be transmitted up that too.


If you want a low tech solution, cut tennis balls in half and stuff them with a firm foam.

I had this issue with one of mine. I had heard about the rubber dot that wears out under the touchpad. I took the controller apart and replaced the worn out one with some other material (the edge part of one of these) and it has worked great so far. The only problem I have now is that the one controller has a brand new rubber thing and I can feel how bad the other rubber dot is getting and will need to replace it eventually as well.

It wasn't that exact thing from amazon, but it was similar and just an idea of the material, it was just thin yet dense rubber with an adhesive back side. The thing that is in the controller from the manuf seems to be a slightly foamy rubber or something. It was kinda soft to the touch, so I can see how it would go out.

I personally didn't want to wait for them to futz around with RMA because I knew it was an easy fix and I was very capable. I was back and playing that same day.

A much cleaner solution is the little round clear dots you can buy to stick on doors to make them not slam. They're like a $1 and would look great.

I've built two systems for clients almost identical to this recently.

Only differences:

• RAM size
  
• $190 for 16GB LED kit - http://www.amazon.com/Crucial-Ballistix-Tactical-PC3-12800-BLT2CP8G3D1608DT2TXRG/dp/B0091L1MRY
  
• LED color ... I have Red/Green selected for you due to your mention of red. They wanted wanted Orange/Blue. - I much prefer the Red/Green. Orange/Blue is a little cheesy IMHO. Red/Green is more classic LED colors.
  
  
• SSD size
  
• 512GB Crucial MX100 SSDs for $209
  
• No hard drives
  
• One build with a single drive, the other with 2x 512GB SSDs
  
  
• Video card
  
• One went with no video card.
  
• Another with an EVGA 780 ti Superclocked.
  
  
• Power supply
  
• One without video card went for a Corsair 450w Gold semi-modular unit.
  
• One with a 780ti had a sale on the 650w corsair gold unit made it cheaper than the 550w.
  
  
• Monitors
  
• Both have LG IPS screens and love em... just different exact models.
  
• One was a 24" version ... The other a 23" with advanced stand.
  
  Both are using that exact keyboard and love it ... It's their first mechanical board. Frankly, there are better, but much more expensive mechanical boards out there. Since it's their first mechanical, they just know it's much better than plastic domes. With the Cost + LED back lighting makes that keyboard almost impossible to pass up.
  
  They had other mice... But I've use that Logitech G602 on other builds before. Battery life beats out any other wireless gaming mice they have used.

  Almost de-railing my plans to build myself a new 6-core/8-core with the X99... which doesn't get any smaller than Micro-ATX.
  

The cheapest solution is obviously the clear rubber domes used for things like dampening cabinet doors. I was just looking for something a little nicer. :D
https://www.amazon.com/Shepherd-Hardware-9967-SurfaceGard-Self-Adhesive/dp/B007ZUENG0/

I suggest a small cooling pad between the two. Basically anything nice an cheap that has lil legs that can raise up the WiiU, and still allow controllers to fit on the other side. Whatever you get, get some felt pads for under the feet!. Heck your Ikea chairs scraping on the kitchen floor will thank you.

1- I bet you can get away with some small rubber feet and no screws. That would keep it from sliding around. Once you got everything on the desk, I think you'd be fine. If you're more comfortable with more, then screws would be fine (don't forget to drill a pilot hole).

2- At 1 3/4" thick, I think you'll be fine without it.

3- See number 2

That piece is unfinished. You'll want to finish the wood with something. Natural Danish oil would be the easiest. But if you want more of a film on it, then I'd suggest polyurethane.

Yeah that's awesome. A little pricey for my current use I think. I found this which seems like a cheap alternative

Shop Fox W1322 Anti-Vibration Pad 24-Inch by 36-Inch, Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000OQTV2I/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_sM.yybES4F6CT

Is this the same idea as using sorbothane balls? I suppose isolating the turntable might be more cost effective, I was also looking into the audio engine stands, but really not sure how effective those would be. Would vibrations from the speakers on the turntable actually be noticeable?

Thanks for the response :)

I once got tile floor samples shipped to me. I use them daily as coasters. They're about 3" X 5" X 0.5" thick. They need some felt pads stuck on them to keep from sliding on or scratching my glass coffee table though. Basically these coasters for a much lower price.

They're great for putting candles on. The Yankee Candle large size fits pretty nicely on it. It sits on my nightstand. This one is heavy enough it doesn't slide. It isn't necessary, but it looks nice. Might get one of these to do the same with.

Another, unrelated use for construction samples. Someone I knew I was planning on making a scratching post for their cat. Went to Home Depot to get a section of carpet. Ended up getting a bunch of carpet square samples and made a mosaic kind of thing.

I don't use a door but it just sits there. The only thing between some rubber stoppers to discourage sliding. Works perfectly by the time the weight of my Vesa mounst and PC are on top.

Are you worries about carrying the stones separately? I have GoGameGuru's folding board, which is also Japanese (smaller) sized:

Lines are straight, board sounds excellent. ProTip: Rubber "feet" on the bottom help the sound & protect the hinge from scratching the surface:

I have a desk very similar to this and I love it. The clear glass one is cheaper right now though.

Edit: If you're going to place your monitors directly on your desk I would suggest getting something like this to decouple them from your desk.

You've got a cute cat, btw!

Try some blocks of high-density foam, you can find them in black and they're strong enough that you can make them look more or less like they were there all along.

If it's not vibrating, just wandering around aimlessly, you could put some of this down, even under just two of the legs.

Now you need to make a Wandering Subwoofer song.

I used these for my ps2avrgb, they're a bit bigger than I expected but your KB definitely won't be sliding!
edit: I can take a pic of those feet on my ps2avrgb when I get home if you'd like to see.

It's a rubber pad that goes in between the glass top and the metal frame of the TORSBY table. I need to replace the ones on my table and don't know what to call them and I can't find them on any IKEA replacement part sites.

EDIT:
bought some of these:https://www.amazon.com/Stick-Glass-Protective-Pads-Pkg-Clear/dp/B004BPQMV6
might also work as substitutes. I searched for clear rubber pads. THANKS

My Dual CS-5000 is crazy vibration prone so a wall mounted shelf was my best option. Opted for a sandwich of two 3/4" hardwood ply boards with sorbothane hemispheres in between. Works like a charm.

I guess use something like this. Maybe mess around with the vertical height a bit beforehand to see what works nice. Oh and perhaps a dome shape is better as a flat shape won't work as well on an angle. I just realized that.

I put this on the bottom of all my gear. Plus, everything is safely tucked away under the speaker stands I made.

> If you mean the version where the doorstop prevents micro vibrations and the iron will suck up cosmic rays thus enhancing the sound, then definitely not.

Scared me for a second there lol

I added rubber pads to the bottom of my PS4 and it vastly improved how hard the fan had to work to keep it cooled. Something like this.

For one, you may want to think about removing your brothers' teeth. :)

As for a temporary solution, many hardware stores will carry little rubber feet for putting on the bottom of radios and what not. They might not be ultra secure but they may be a usable bandage until you get a better replacement.

These are what I'm talking about.

I was considering getting one of these, but the cost seemed prohibitive. So, off to Thingiverse.

Found this excellent model

Then added this enhancement for durability.

I grabbed a pack of adhesive foam rubber from amazon and now I’m ripping in style (and safety)

One already exists, although I had to deviate in one area - aligning the stock gasket.

I found the stock gasket lacking in thickness and glue. I found a substitute, used the stock to determine the diameter, and replaced.

My CLICK is much more satisfying, and has been dropped many times to ensure reliability.

EDIT* Guide to fix
https://www.reddit.com/r/Vive/comments/4fyk6p/vive_pre_trackpads_broken_click_fix/

Thanks /u/illuzionvr

I replaced the gasket with the material here:
http://www.amazon.com/3M-Scotch-Rubber-75-Inch-16-Inch/dp/B001QCXXWS/

...I used the material found between the feet, the stuff that gets discarded.

This is a great idea!

To make it even easier:


1 inch Felt Pads

I inch printable labels

1 inch wooden disks

No cutting required.

I've been using the vinyl bumpers recommended in this guide:

http://www.cryptobadger.com/2013/04/build-a-litecoin-mining-rig-hardware/

They work perfectly.

Thanks for the reply! I've already done this, as per my post. The ones I bought from Amazon aren't stopping the vibrations, though. Do you have any recommendations from ones that will definitely stop the vibrations?

These are the ones that I bought: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008GUYZWK/

Nice! Can you upload it on Thingiverse? Or upload it somewhere and post a link? I have a stand for this reason and it sucks. Laptop is always falling over.

Edit: I did put some of those clear rubber feet on the bottom of it which helps a ton. Could work for you as well...
https://www.amazon.com/Self-adhesive-Clear-Rubber-Feet-Bumpons/dp/B001JAW454

For a netbook?

The cheapest thing to do would be dust it out every so often. If it's out of warranty, reapplying the thermal paste might not be a bad idea either.

Beyond that, you can try to augment the standoffs with little stick-on rubber feet(a 4pk should only cost $3 in a store like Home Depot or Walmart).

That should increase the airflow under the chassis.

thats a good idea, but tbh those drawers are about 75 bucks each and gets too expensive for me, i think im gonna go for this table - its a crappy plastic table, but it is height adjustable and its 48"x23" which i think is the ideal size for me - i think if i put a table cloth or bedsheet over it, and maybe some desk leg pads like these if it's not stable enough.

think that's a good idea?

Yes, it's a bit loose. My solution is to stick one of these rubber stickers inside the tip of the fork. It adds enough traction to help things stay in place.

Nope, everything inside was unharmed. I bought these feet for it and they've been working great!

If you've left it in the sun or in a hot room for too long it might have flexed a little but rather check if it wobbles on another flat surface before jumping to conclusions, could just be the table.

In either case you could always get yourself some of these or these to try and even it out :)

Something like this might help a bit with the noise

Rubber feet like these?

Rubber Feet Adhesive Rubber Pads, 1 Inch Square Self Stick Bumpers, Clear Bumper Pads - 20 Pack https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01G5WX4M2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_ybBSzb1SZ0VX6

Some of these to rise up your ps4 a bit to create better airflow.

Here's what i use. They stick to the bottom and the console "sticks" more to the table thus not sliding like coins or soda caps could. They've been working great!
I'll take a picture when I'm home later.


Amazon Protective Pads

It happens from the raised boarder around the touch screen. What me and my friends did is we got rubber bumpers and put them in the top left and right corners of the top screen, it still closes and goes to sleep and it stops that annoying scratch line from showing up.

something like that. It keeps your ds screens from resting together.

I'm using ones similar to these with a sticky back. Make sure the console is level, too as that helps tremendously with noise.

Happened to me too, just buy replace rubber feet:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XPCLN23/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_U3mWCbSBNQBW2

These worked so nicely for me and continue to be amazing

I prop my ps4 up on 4 of these guys. They're excellent for airflow under the console.

Just remember whatever you add will add height! The rubber feet he's talking about can be picked up from RONA or whatever local hardware store in the furniture section. They come in a pack of 20-50 and are adhesive, ususally thrown on table tops and whatnot.

​

The counter tops are just resting on the Alex units but with some rubber pads. The pads that came with the units were terrible though, didn't stick in place and the desk pulled them off. I got some of these from amazon which are meant to work with glass tops. The desk doesnt move anywhere now.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004BPQMV6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Then there are some Olov adjustable legs in the corner.

You could make a simple wood frame like this one made out of old pallets for the glass table top https://cdn.instructables.com/FJ8/RUGM/IATH9OM9/FJ8RUGMIATH9OM9.LARGE.jpg.

If you got some glass pads and put them on the frame you could just move the glass into your bedroom away from the kids when not in use.
https://www.amazon.com/Stick-Glass-Protective-Pads-Pkg-Clear/dp/B004BPQMV6

I guess you can get something like these in every hardware store, they should work fine.

I actually got those with Amazon Prime. Here's what I grabbed: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00004YOHP/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (3/4" Clear 12-pack)

Or..... this, which will actually decouple and save you a few bucks.

Most UTH's will come with little rubber feet that you can put on the bottom of your tank to raise it up from the surface. You should use them to let air flow get in around the UTH. If your thermostat doesn't come with them, you should be able to find them online. They're pretty cheap

I believe this will let you build at least 20 keyboards :D https://www.amazon.com/SJ5302-Clear-Bumpon-Blister-Bumpons/dp/B01ACPT2LU

Or this kind of pads may be even better https://www.amazon.com/SoftTouch-Self-Stick-Non-Slip-Surface-Grip/dp/B000SL0KJM/

These might work even better: http://www.amazon.com/Rubber-Anti-Skid-Furniture-Protectors-assorted/dp/B00H876X5Y

Do you recommend an entire pad, or just using something like these just for the corners? Now I'm thinking about wallmounts where the speaker is sitting on a plane and using the sorbothane discs in the corners.

Are you talking about something like this?

I wonder if something like this would work?

It looks like it might be missing the tiny little circular rubber stopper that goes behind the handle. Hold it open and look behind it, and compare with the passenger side. Something like this might fix the issue.

https://www.amazon.com/Self-Stick-Noise-Dampening-Bumpers-12-pieces/dp/B001WAK6DS/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1498586103&sr=8-3&keywords=rubber+bumper

These should work. It's always nice to have some of these laying around for random things that need feet.

So, would something like this be much more appropriate? They come in multiple diameters depending on the weight of the item you are attaching them to.

These

https://www.amazon.com/Shepherd-Hardware-9965-SurfaceGard-Self-Adhesive/dp/B0007GFC46/

or

https://www.amazon.com/Stick-Glass-Protective-Pads-Pkg-Clear/dp/B004BPQMV6
might also work as substitutes. I searched for clear rubber pads.

https://www.amazon.com/Sorbothane-Hemisphere-Non-Skid-Adhesive-Durometer/dp/B003IMJ3S2

Calculate the mass of your printer and get the appropriate durometer feet. Isolating the printer's vibrations from the table it is on / the frame of the building helps significantly.

I put Sorbothane pucks under the stock feet and that damped out a lot of the vibrations/noise. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0042U8P9C/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Note that that is exposed Sorbothane (looks and feels like a gummy bear) and can stain a surface. Just put Saran Wrap under it or 3D print a little cup to set them in.

Perhaps you can buy something like these:
https://www.amazon.com/Shepherd-Hardware-9967-Surface-Adhesive/dp/B007ZUENG0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1467395350&sr=8-1

I hadn't even thought of an anti-vibration mat. Something like this?

If you don't find any suction cups, you can always get some anti-slip pads. Something like this.

Something like this, or similar: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XPCLN23/

Small feet should eliminate the wobble. Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004BPQMV6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_puYRAbNXFDDER

I've had success with these: http://amzn.com/B0042U8P9C. I don't have a subwoofer, but my Play:5 was making stuff rattle, and these fixed that. YMMV.

I bought some felt pads for some chairs in my house. With some left over, I put four of them under my ps4. It seems makes the console quieter and gives more airflow around it to keep it cool.

The console really shouldn't overheat if there's enough room for it to breath. Don't put it inside of a closed off cabinet.

I used to have this problem too. My discs would eject every day. I tried everything - the disc eject screw adjustment, grounding my PS4, placing it on tin foil, etc. The one thing that finally worked for me was placing little rubber feet under my PS4. They raise it an extra couple millimeters off the shelf and seem to do the trick. Here are some you can find on Amazon for a couple bucks. I got mine at Home Depot.

I haven't tried the anti-static tape, but this solution won't look as bad (it's invisible) and will still let you use your buttons.

I use these things. http://www.amazon.com/Waxman-4719095N-1-Inch-Self-Stick-Oatmeal/dp/B001WAK5X4 and they work great. BUT my stands are clamp stands and these won't help make anything stick.

Mine used to wobble. I added rubber feet on the existing feet, and it works just fine now.

DOUBLE SIDED TAPE!!

On a serious note, you can grab some anti-skid rubber pads from amazon, remove the old rubber pads from underneath your keyboard, and just stick on some new ones.

Haven't tried it but i figure it would do the job.

Yeah, international tracking stops after it gets to Chicago :/ Sometimes it picks pack up once it gets to customs though

Yeah! They're these guys (dimensions in description): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001JAW454/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Of course, here are the ones I purchased. You have to be careful to get the right weight load for your speakers or equipment.

just order a custom cut piece of tempered glass and be done with it. order these or something similar - the glass will not slide. https://www.amazon.com/Rubber-Adhesive-Square-Bumpers-Bumper/dp/B01G5WX4M2/

glass on top of rubber like this is used in every piece of glass top furniture as long as it's tempered glass you'll be fine. If you reall are worried, cut an inset into the table for the glass to be a little smaller and then lay it inside.

You can help with the vibration by putting her bed and yours on sorbothane pads. Sorbothane is the brand name for really really soft rubber which will stop vibrations being transmitted through it.

You can measure "air vibration" with a microphone. Sound = vibrating air after all.

You can use an app on your phone to measure floor and ceiling vibration using its accelerators.

If you don't mind the eyesore, you could buy some adhesive sheets made out of silicone, rubber, or foam and cut a strip to go around your bottles. Maybe even something like a couple of woven fabric bandaids would give you enough of a grip.

A rug probably couldn't hurt either. Another option if you want to throw some money at it are rubber or foam isolation pads. Amazon sells some: Vibrapod - Isolator Isolation Feet - $24 and Ideaworks JB6368 S/4 Anti Vibration Pads - $5, there are a few more options as well. They may or may not work but they might be worth a shot.

cheaper alternative someone recommended on an astronomy forum: https://www.amazon.com/Ideaworks-JB6368-Anti-Vibration-Pads/dp/B008GUYZWK/

I haven't used these, so I can't tell how effective these are.

They'e not screws, but these

This will make a lot of difference to your downstairs neighbor:

i use adhesive rubber tabs/bumpers i got at the hardware store for my speaker to stand contact. similar to what i posted below, but mine are about half inch rather than an inch. they sell round ones too.

https://www.amazon.com/Rubber-Adhesive-Square-Bumpers-Bumper/dp/B01G5WX4M2/ref=pd_lpo_vtph_201_tr_t_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=67KYR8BCANXHEPWBXQ7W&dpID=41maykcOTCL&preST=_SY300_QL70_&dpSrc=detail

I'm using these for the feet: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003IMJ3S2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_FCzwxbQR7D42P

I also have a set of ninja flex ones. They are not completely noise dampening, but my noise requirement are different from most people's. I'll push the STLs today or tomorrow for those. I believe there was another guy here that did the feet in OpenSCAD for it.

> drum tacs.

Would these work instead of paying $20 for 4 Drumtacs?

I used http://www.amazon.com/Isolate-It-Sorbothane-Vibration-Isolation/dp/B0042U8P9C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1410734079&sr=8-1&keywords=isolate+it%21+isolation+pads

Canadian link, but here you go!

I was thinking the same thing. Try these Chair Leg Floor Protectors for about $5

http://www.amazon.com/Rubber-Bumper-Protect-Cushion-Surfaces/dp/B000JLD7LO

Find the contact points on the wall and install some little rubber feet.

https://www.amazon.com/Adhesive-Bumper-106-PC-Spherical-Square/dp/B06XPCLN23?ref_=fsclp_pl_dp_6

You need some door silencers.
http://www.amazon.com/Waxman-4215395N-Round-Bumpers-pieces/dp/B001WAK6DS/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1416786812&sr=8-5&keywords=door+silencer
Stack em till the door can still close and the rattle goes away.

Something similar to these that I picked up at the hardware store.

Depends on the console but here are some ideas https://www.amazon.com/Self-Adhesive-Bumper-82-Piece-Spherical-Square/dp/B06XCLYL53/ref=pd_lpo_vtph_60_lp_t_3?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=8P5KZPC2393R3YYTDSD2

One option is to try to reduce the noise at the source.

You could buy a set of these for each machine and see how much that reduces the noise

Self-stick rubber bumpers on Amazon

These + These = What you were asking for.

That dresser is absorbing a lot too. You need stands or put some these sorbothane pucks under them.

Not very loud, after I put these under it: http://www.amazon.com/Isolate-It-Sorbothane-Vibration-Isolation/dp/B0042U8P9C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1383223221&sr=8-1&keywords=isolate+it

Bumpers I believe. Like this?

Non-mobile:

• Felt rounds
  
• felt tape/strip
  
  ^That's ^why ^I'm ^here, ^I ^don't ^judge ^you. ^PM ^/u/xl0 ^if ^I'm ^causing ^any ^trouble. ^WUT?

that's kind of vague. something like this maybe?

Round felt furniture pads under furniture and under feet of TT. [LINK](Self-Stick 1-Inch Furniture Round Felt Pads for Hard Surfaces, Oatmeal, 48-Piece https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001WAK5X4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_m.8rzb5R8FZXS)

All you would need is felt applied under whatever you don't want to scratch.
Felt rounds are widely available and cheap. Maybe you want felt tape/strip for longer applications like a dresser or something, you just cut it to length. Or you need a custom size or shape, you just get felt pads and cut it up.

Well, it's a much easier problem to solve :). If your hinges were noisy, lube em. If you wanted to slow the door closing down, cabinet door hinges are made that have dampeners in them, but they are very expensive.

Just quieting down the closing of the door, piece o' cake. Just order online or go to any nearby hardware or craft or art store, and get some of these and stick them to the upper and lower corners of the door on the opposite side from the hinges.

Look up "speaker isolation pads". For example:

https://www.amazon.com/VIBRATION-ISOLATION-RIBBED-DAMPENING-QUANTITY/dp/B06XBQ1Q7P/

https://www.amazon.com/Isolate-Sorbothane-Vibration-Isolation-Circular/dp/B0042U8P9C/

Wow, sounds like you need to move them to someplace less confined/dusty, I know I had my PS4 inside my TV cabinet and it gave me no end of problems, fan chugged loud due to heat and the dust in there clogged the vents and the Playstation controller would slightly lag out sometimes because it was so close to the router and the signals interfered with each other.

I moved my PS4 out of the cabinet and also cleaned the dust real good, I placed furniture pads on the bottom which helped immensely with heat and now the fans mostly silent, the DVD drive whines loud during certain games but it's not unbearable.

Now that my router and PS4 are about 4 feet apart the controls are tight as hell, hope this helps someone.

How does it make your prints worse? This?

Is she angry?

Edit - stick some of these felt pads in her door frame.

Quality is basically the same on the prints that I have done. I'm finishing a project right now but then I will print another benchy.
