Anyhow, now the back chambers are done and the 40 bags of sand (300 pounds) are prepared to be loaded to the horn’s top. We are back on the schedule. When the horns will be installed I will fine-tine the Fs by pocking the small holes in the foam.


Sand is a good decoupler.
The Incas built their massive solid stone buildings above sand + gravel foundation to absorb the energy of their quake prone homeland.

It was also used by the Jews in Iberia during the Inquisition days: they would spread it on the floors of their synagogues supposedly to avoid getting heard during religious services.
