I’m well behind you guys (still planning the cbeam machine I’m building) but my eventual plan is to make an enclosure similar to this: > [@X-Carve Bench & Enclosure](https://community.inventables.com/t/x-carve-bench-enclosure/14450/2): > > Your bench is basically the same design that I use. Having the flip up top enclosure really cuts down on noise and contains dust. I can’t remember the exact dimensions that mine ended up being and I’m not home to check for an few days. I want to say that I went wirh something like 48x48 outside though. Mine is tight on the inside space a little bit. I have room for the machine and drag chain/NEMA 23 combo but if I ever decided to buy larger motors it wouldn’t fit width-wise I have a few posts … I will then stuff the sides (and anywhere else) with old towels and make acoustic tiles as per this video: [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/pABvTWSxOes/maxresdefault.jpg "How to Make High Performance Sound Absorption Panels for $5") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pABvTWSxOes) Again, all a rough plan but I think it’s a sound enough (no pun intended). --- _[View the full topic](https://community.inventables.com/t/soundproof-enclosure/27458)._
