Anyone have any thoughts/experience of rubber mats as a means of reducing machine vibration?
I've just made a small cupboard/bench to take my drill press and although the construction is as rugged and heavy as I could make it (lots of construction lumber, ply and MDF) I'm still a little concerned about vibration.
Would a rubber mat under the table help? If so, of what kind of thickness?
I've Googled extensively but turned up little useful info. I know that there are companies who sell anti-vibration mats, but could one make do with a less-expensive-albeit-non-engineered-rubber-mat?
