Well, Rod, room-within-a-room was the original plan, but that was foiled by time, money, and the difficulty of working with or replacing the current roof support system. So, I need to figure out what ...

I'm planning a room-within-a-room studio in a garage, in which I will be, among other things, playing drums.

I intend to build a double-layer inner wall sitting on rubber with a small (2 inch) air ...

Thanks, Rod.

Love the book, by the way.
