Isn't 'polarity' what a comedy pole dancer does?

[Wonks]

...or a performer who tells funny eastern European jokes.

[Hugh Robjohns]

:lol: :bouncy: :clap:

[ManFromGlass]

according to politicians - the poles never lie

[blinddrew]

I just need to make sure no-one makes me laugh...

You'll be safe here then.

Quoting for truth...

[Martin Walker]

Maybe I should photoshop up an artists impression of the finished room...?

I'd be interested to see that Drew! ;)

[blinddrew]

Ha! I was worried someone might take me up on that. Given my photoshop skills (or absence thereof) I think I might just be quicker finishing the build! :)

[Wonks]

He was only ribbing you.

[Sam Spoons]

Give the man a break Wonky (oh, he's already got one :lol: )

[ManFromGlass]

a half box of laxatives should cure the urge to laugh

[zenguitar]

But all those sprints to the toilet won’t help the rib. :angel:

Andy :beamup:

[Wonks]

Better to take a whole box and never leave it.

[Sam Spoons]

The Codine he's taking for the pain should just offset the laxatives......

[blinddrew]

You're cracking me up

[Sam Spoons]

I do hope not Drew :D

[blinddrew]

I've often felt that making broadband absorbers using 4"x1" timber and additional corner bracing was over-engineering, especially when using 60Kg/m3 rockwool.
So here's the test panel with 1"x1.5" roofing batten timber, with supporting straps of weed-blocker (2 front to hold the rockwool in place, 1 rear to stop the panels flexing outward).

4 blocks and the next batch of frames:

And that was it for this weekend. :)

[Folderol]

You didn't fancy exposing the classic features of the treated timber then :lol:

[blinddrew]

Having painted over it on the bass traps I think I'm glad I didn't go with 'building site blue/green'.

[Sam Spoons]

I used 2 x 1 PAR (I worked for a timber merchants in the '70s) for my frames then spaced them off the surface with another batten of 2 x 1 on the finished panel. No need for corner braces if you use decent sized screws and butt joints.

But your method works just as well (especially as my framing was also covered by the fabric).

Small k in kg, Mr Drew, small k.
