[QUOTE="Rob Timmerman, post: 15399, member: 172"] Re: DIY mini-stage/riser/platform An interesting approach I've seen used in theatrical settings to reduce the ''drum'' effect of platforms is to build the deck in 3 layers. The bottom layer is 3/4'' plywood, and provides the structural strength of the deck. Atop that is a layer of 1/2'' homasote, which provides some vibration damping. The whole assembly is topped off with 1/8'' masonite (hardboard), providing a durable, paintable surface. Heavy and thick, but it sounded and felt like a proper floor when you walked on it. [/QUOTE]
