Hi guys.
Another question!
As I stated in my previous post, I'm looking to start back up my expensive and frustrating apartment woodworking experience.
But this time, I'm looking to tackle aggressively the noise problem.
The most difficult part of this process in the past was reverberations from saws (which I can fix I think) and the incredibly loud noise that results from hitting a chisel with a hammer.
Not being able to hit a chisel with a hammer at all makes for an incredibly frustrating woodworking experience.
Thus, I'm looking for every way on earth to make this possible, and way way quieter.
I've heard that Dead Blow Hammers are very quiet. Is this the case? Would this help, and if so, in what way?
We have to contend with both the schock of the impact, which travels through the bench and to the floor, and walls, and also the shock of the hammer hitting the chisel, which can be loud as well. Also the bench top acting as a potential sound board if it is too thin?
