Homemade Tower Stand

Post by Raymond »

Hey Folks,
I made myself a Tower Stand a few years ago. I have been reading that they put something on the floor to dampen any sound. I have some rug that I am going to put on the floor. I have enough to do the walls and ceiling if neccessary. Do I need to cover the walls and ceiling also?
Thanks,
Raymond

Egg cartons will dampen the sound on the walls and ceilings and there fairly easy to obtain. Just staple them together. Then you can have a rock concert in you stand and nothing will know your there. :D

While carpet on the walls wouldnt be a must or anything,it will dampen sound some. I dont know the temps in your area during hunting season,but carpet on the walls will also act as an insulator to make your hide a little warmer.Just a thought.
