Interesting… What perspective are you coming from?

@@JackofAllMinistries jesus is not the messiah jesus did not fulfill the messianic prophecies the bible says the messiah will gather the exiles in deuteronomy 30:3 isaiah 11:11-12 jeremiah 30:3, 32:37 ezekiel 11:17, 36:24 the bible says the messiah will rebuild the temple in isaiah 2:2-3, 56:6-7, 60:7, 66:20 ezekiel 37:26-27 malachi 3:4 zechariah 14:20-21 the bible says when the messiah comes there will be world peace and a complete end to war in micah 4:1-4 hoseah 2:20 isaiah 2:1-4, 60:18 the bible says the messiah will bring universal knowledge of god in zechariah: 3:9 8:23, 14:9, 16 isaiah 45:23, 66:23; jeremiah 31:33 ezekie​l 38:23; psalm 86:9 zephaniah 3:9. jesus didn't do any of these things, so jesus can't be the messiah.

The problem with that statement is that it assumes Jesus no longer has a chance to fulfill any prophecies. Oddly enough, the New Testament itself covers a range of things that are still to come; including almost an entire book called, “Revelation.”

@JackofAllMinistries So you are saying that jesus didn't fulfill the prophecies, but he will come back and fulfill them them? You could use that argument to say anyone is the messiah because if they don't fulfill the prophecies, you could just say they will come back and fulfill them.

@@Pomni740 That would be a possibility, however Jesus already fulfilled more than 300 prophecies including some which no longer have a chance to be fulfilled. For example, the timing of Daniel’s 69th week has long come and gone. Any future person claiming to be the Messiah would have to dismiss that date. No person in history or future will have the opportunity to claim Messianic authority in the way Jesus has.

Thanks so much! Hopefully someone can get you an across the pond substitute!

So glad it was helpful! Trust me, I use YT all the time for stuff most people just know how to do on their own.

Thanks so much for watching! I’m so glad it was helpful. MLV is great stuff and will definitely outperform carpet and underlayment. Underlayment just doesn’t have the same amount of mass as MLV, although sometimes MLV is used as underlayment. For me the real question was cost per dB attenuated, and that’s where MLV falls off - it’s just so expensive.

@@JackofAllMinistries Agreed! Now that you’ve saved me a bunch of money by using a tacky carpet glue, I might be able to swing the MLV 😂 How’s your carpet glue holding up? It looks like that Roberts 3095 might be the ticket to remain tacky. Have you been able to try any SONOPan yet? I’ve been hearing good things (pun intended) but apparently the only dealer in the States is in Ohio. Keep up the great content!

I wish I used the 3095 because I have no idea how the carpet glue has held up in my walls. I have a hunch it has hardened, but that’s all it is - a hunch.

Of course you can! I love when my work can help others.

I wish I had one, but I’ve just never taken the time to figure one out.

A friend of mine just finished one. He did traditional framing with OSB on the outside and insulation on the inside. He also built an exhaust vent and intake vent that had flaps directing it towards the ground. He said it’s about half as loud as it used to be. Someone commented the other day that they glued lead sheets to plywood for a window plug. That would increase the price quite a bit tho. Hopefully that’s at least a little helpful.

I’ve heard a lot of people say that, but I cant find any documentation that states that. You don’t happen to know of a source, do you? Everything I’ve read states it works by constrained layer damping, which seems to suggest they want the air gaps to be minimized. I’m curious because if air gaps are the goal (like rez channel), then I would think more minimal surface contact would be better because anywhere GG makes contact with a surface it’s not doing its job. In that case I would think thin beads of striped silicone would be better.

@@JackofAllMinistries You need different solutions because no single solution will prevent sound transmission at all frequency levels. I don't have a white paper to hand you. I'm thinking about it from a physics perspective. Imagine that we're standing 3 feet from each other, and I want to punch you. You're just far enough away that I'd be punching air. But if I put the end of a 2x4 against your chest and I hit the other end of it, you'd feel it. That's basically how the studs in your wall work when sound waves hit the sheetrock: sound energy travels more effectively through a physical medium, especially at lower frequencies. A resonating wall will have a harder time moving another parallel wall if there is air between them, but if you were to connect them somehow, then that would function as a piston. A resilient wall works by creating an air gap while using as little material as possible to prevent a piston effect. You can mitigate sound with CLD, resilient walls, Rockwool, etc... but it will ultimately come down to an effective combination of different solutions for your use case.

@betaomega04 For sure, I understand the impact noise side of air gaps, and there are certainly a lot of people who have said the same thing. But if that’s what Green Glue is trying to accomplish, it seems everywhere it exists between the sheets, it’s connecting those surfaces together. I’m not sure there is enough of an air gap there. I mean, maybe a 16th of an inch and only where the GG is not applied. So why not use silicone beads in strips that create more air gaps?

Thanks so much! Typically we fill the shelves on site. We only use it a couple of times per year so I haven’t invested much into the transport process.

Thanks so much! I just might consider doing that…

So glad to hear that! Great for just about anyone it seems…

Awesome! Who knew this little illustration could work at such a high level!

I would agree on both counts, although charcoal does have plenty of surface area. After much research and experiments film after I made this video, I found that activated carbon works better for absorption than attenuation.

So glad I could help!! When it comes to this kind of stuff those savings really add up

Oh wow, that’s amazing! Thanks so much for doing that. I hope they do market something so we can be a part of something good for the industry!

Yep, can’t really explain why it’s works for me but it does!

So glad it was helpful!!! You are very welcome.

Well, yes and no. Rockwool and other insulation adds limp mass and dampens the vibration of the drywall surfaces. However, it can also be used for absorption, which is why I used Rockwool for my sound absorption panels.

Thanks so much!

Sounds like a great adventure you’re signing up for! I can honestly say that I don’t have any yurt experience whatsoever, so I’m kinda shooting in the dark a bit. MLV and Rockwool will surely make some sort of difference, but I’m not sure how much. The one question I have is, is it possible to reduce the sound at the source? It seems that the outside of a yurt is made of some type of vinyl or something. Can you either change that material to something quieter, or can you place something (like Rockwool) up against it to reduce its ability to vibrate? Sort of like muffling a bass drum…

Thank you so much!

I like the potential there for sustainable soundproofing options!

I have never tried that one - it’s an interesting proposition. Were the towels packed in very tight, or just sorta draped in there?

@@JackofAllMinistries Can't find the YT video that I referred to. Basically, what the guy did was compare a few different sound-proofing materials using fairly sophisticated sound gadgets. These materials ranged from expensive professional materials down to household towels. He built frames from 1x3 timber. These frames were similar in size to the towels he was using. As far as I can remember, he stapled some ordinary material to one side of the frame. He then attached the towels(lightly stitched together) to the inside of the frame. He finished off by stapling ordinary material to the other side. The DIY towelling panels beat the other conventional materials by a massive margin. Hope this helps.

I’m so glad it worked! No, unfortunately I don’t have a method for the OT that’s quite so easy. I’d like to develop one but I’m not there yet.

I would love to put one out for the OT but I never learned a good method for it. I’ve been slowly working on that idea but it’s a bit trickier.

I still don’t have a really good way to do that. I did in a very convoluted and disorganized way so it just “happened.” I’ve been slowly working on a way that’s teachable but I’m not there yet.

And thank you for watching it! So happy it was helpful.

Someone mark this as my new favorite comment lol

So glad it could help you the way it helped me!

When I learned it, I had no idea how helpful it would become. I’m so happy you found it helpful!

My pleasure!

Now that’s is very interesting, but not necessarily surprising. I have a couple of ACDA’s in my studio that I built from MDF specifically because they vibrate in sympathy. Then, as that vibration sucks the energy out of the air it is dampened with charcoal. So it makes sense that vibration at low frequencies would be an issue, but I had never put that together.

@@JackofAllMinistries I've thought many times how to improve the sound reduction of that window... drastic things like filling the window cavities with soil, charcoal or sand, but it would be a mess to restore back to a normal window in the wintertime. I wonder how feasible it would be to design windows that would enable you to pull a vacuum on the inside of them. No air/sound at all would pass through, no matter what the frequency was. That would be very interesting.

@@JP5466 I e had similar thoughts about the vacuum thing. Seems like it would be awesome, so why hasn’t someone done? There must be some reason, right?

@@JackofAllMinistries Maybe because they would be very sensitive to any damage. One small crack, then implosion!

UPDATE: I made improvements with soundproofing my bedroom window. I bought 1/16" lead sheeting and glued it to the 2'x4' 3/4" plywood and screwed two of these in to cover the window. Pros: - No frequency resonance/vibrations whatsoever. - Takes up a lot less space. - This is the best thing I've ever used to block low frequencies. No contest. Cons: - Very heavy. One 2x4' plywood with the 1/16" lead glued to it weighs 50 lbs. - The 2'x4' sections must be screwed into the frame. Landlord may not permit that. - The entire window is blocked and inaccessible. You want to block out low frequencies/bass noise from a window?... this is what you need to do. Don't waste your time and money with anything else. Make sure the entire thing is sealed with weather stripping and/or stretch calk. In order for this to be 100% effective, no air must get through.

Me too! Thanks for watching it!

I’d say that sounds about right to me.

That’s what I did too - it’s really so easy!! Glad I could help.

I’m still formulating one, but it’s just not there yet.

Very clever! I actually came up with a real floor plan based on this that’s very similar to what you said. It could actually make a beautiful home! And I looked at your OT version - very clever. Is Jerry lame? Is he Dan? I’ll remember that from now on lol…

@@JackofAllMinistries No heart or even a thumbs up? And you deleted my comments on memorizing the Old Testament books? I think those things aren't very nice, and that you should treat people who take the time to write comments better.

@@michelemoneywell8765 I don’t see what you’re talking about. I took the time to respond to your comments and I didn’t delete anything. I just looked at them yesterday and they were there so I’m not sure what the issue is.

If I deleted something, I have no idea what I did. If it was me, I apologize. As for the memorization, this is fantastic! I love the strategy of telling a story with similar word beginnings. Seems like this would help just about anyone memorizing the OT!

Thanks so much! I’m glad it was helpful.

That’s a great question. First, I would say the better carpet adhesive to use is Robert’s 3095 rather than what I used. As far as I can tell, the base ingredient is naphthetic oil which derives from crude oil. That’s the best I can tell you. Sorry, I wish I had more info!

30-40 dB is fantastic! I hope it plays out well for you without all the money gouging.

What do you mean?

I haven’t tested that, but my hunch is that the rigidity of closed cell spray foam would actually aid in coupling surfaces which would increase impact noise and transfer sound. That may diminish the benefits of the added mass. Something I might consider testing in the future!

Awesome!!! So glad to hear!

Thanks so much!

Yeah, I’d say that’s true!

Maybe a better word than pride here would be satisfaction with the accomplishment. I think that’s healthy and not sin because the venture is to do a good job to honor God with the resources He gives. Thanks so much for the compliment!

@fartpooboxohyeah8611 It was sitting on my buddy’s rack of veneers so I honestly don’t know where he got it from. I have seen online before though. Here’s an example: www.woodcraft.com/products/sauers-wood-veneer-sheet-4-x-8-2-ply-wood-on-wood?variant=44272140615818&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADiA6Y1eaSn8_e8dnJRY8mvbVFaX4&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI__XWvcqchgMVEEf_AR0f2AEvEAQYAiABEgJh9_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

Not a bad idea...

Thanks man! And thanks for the advice. Fortunately there hasn’t been any issues yet, but it’s been something I’ve been concerned about.

Thanks for checking out my work! I appreciate it. For me, GG’s cost is just so astronomically high for the results. It can definitely play a role a holistic solution, but I just struggle with the price tag. I know there is a cure time (not sure that’s the right word), and I’ve heard it’s actually quite a bit longer. The companies that use it don’t seem to mind forwarding the cost onto their customers, but I am very happy with the results I got in my studio using carpet glue. When I build my next one in 5 years I plan on using Robert’s 3095 because that’s the one people seem to recommend. Maybe I should test it first…

@@JackofAllMinistries Very cool! if you're in considering a part two vid for testing, I'd definitely check it out, along with a vid about your window plug! Perhaps some other soundproofing materials worth putting up on the board to compare: Homasote, "premium" acoustic drywall options like Soundbreak and QuietRock, perhaps the Sonopan product if you can procure it, and maybe even a few sheets of regular drywall painted with a specialty sound proofing paint called Coat of Silence. Homasote was another cost-effective material I found with "STC ratings" similar to those of the aforementioned premium drywalls, so I'd be curious to see how these stack up. Keep up the great work man.

Thanks so much! Yeah, by the time I got to that point of my project I was tired and forgot to film it. I’ve been thinking of making a video about just that because so many people seem to have window issues… Basically, I made strips to go around the inside of the window and attached them permanently. They were recessed just enough so that a 3/4” sheet of MDF would sit flush. Then I put seals all around the strips so when the toggles press the MDF, it seals tight. Behind the MDF is essentially an MDF box that fits just inside those strips and is filled with Rockwool. It’s fairly heavy, so I added a couple of handles to pull it out. That’s it! Hopefully the text explanation makes sense…

@@JackofAllMinistries nice man. Well when and if that video does get made, ill make sure to check it out! An MDF or plywood "box" was originally what i was thinking, kind like the construction of an open cajon, filled with rock wool or fiberglass. Then i considered making modular removal wall units, with the handles and toggles you used, excecpt, instead of MDF, I was thinking of using a dedicated sound deadening drywall such as QuietRock (layered maybe with MLV and i would still fill with fiberglass). Any sound-related reasons you went with mdf or was it primarily for aesthetics for the inner-facing side?

@@mousch033 Good question, I honestly don’t remember. I think it may have been because I didn’t want drywall crumbling over time and I think MDF is better at dampening than plywood because of its density.
