I didn't miss it just didn't log by the time I had read though the other post; However, I still stand by original statement with the floor now being tile but even if you elect the carpet I would put the AC mount mats under the feet of projector/lamp-house, power supply and the film handling equipment they absorb a lot of nose and I have used them in several nosy booths to dampen nose!

Anyway you go have fun! I don't think I would want a projector in my home. I have a friend that does but it just isn't for me.

Saw dust and peanut shells like any good cowboy bar. Oh wait, the title is "Booth Floor" not "Bar Floor". Nevermind. [beer] [beer]

I have a 1970's green shag carpet...do you think that would work OK?

I do but can't always catch it! Dyslexia don't you know and the spell checker can see a word is not spelled right but cannot see the words you intended to use! [Smile] Sorry! But the mounts do absorb the sound!

Phil,

A 36" raised floor with 24"x24" cement fill tiles. Then you can run all your wires under the floor [beer]

BTW, does CA have requirements that booth equipment be mounted and secured in such a way tha it will not move in an earthquake?

I bet a good quality carpet would absorb a lot of nose...I have not been face down on one in a long time, but I don't drink as much as I used to either.

Whatever you end up using, just remember to put a tarp down under the machines; those Simplex heads love to take a piss all over your floor. [Wink]

Yup, I can see the headlines now...

Man's house in Hollywood Hills falls down the cliff due to leaky Simplex projector in home.

Hey you doubting Danny and Brad, I've taken precautions for ANY possible oil leaks by installing a 55-gallon oil drum and recirculation pump below the projector head that will pump any leaked oil back to the projector.

Yours in Christ...
