Remove printing noice by 15…20 db (!)
After I finished building the original prusa enclosure, I was disappointed by all the vibrations and noise during printing. So I came up the the old solution of using a concrete plate as anti vibration mass.
Buy a concrete plate 40x40x4 cm.
Remove the anti-slip-dampers
Place the 4 spare Anti-Vibration-Pads on the bottom side of the concrete plate.
Place the concrete plate into the enclosure
Enjoy the "Sound of silence"

Looks like a great idea. Apart from the noise reduction did you see any improvements to the printing quality?

Well that kinda kills the portability of your printer. I don't have vibration issues but if I did, I think I'd try a piece of foam board first. Has anyone tried that yet? I'm sure it beats a giant patio brick.

Well, I never wanted to transport the enclosure with the printer inside, so it's no problem.
Using LCD-Cable-Quick-Release for Original Prusa Enclosure it's easy and quick to move the printer out of the enclosure for service anyway.
