Trommel Build

[Azonic]

Nice job on the trommel!

Off topic, are you going to just paint the mdf walls in your shop?
Have done the same in my new shop so just curious, I'm about to paint my mdf boards this weekend.

The sound recording around your shop sounds like an interesting idea.

Thank you. I tried capturing the feel of an older plant maybe built in the 50s, similar to one at a gravel pit we used to haul out of when I used to drive.
I posted a vid link above with the sound. Ended up taking sound clips from YouTube videos of electric motors, locomotive and a rock crusher and mixed them together.

Kalle, thanks. I had thought about painting the walls last year when I built that room but never got to that point yet. Lightening up the walls would be nice to brighten up the place. What color you thinking? Spray or roll? White would show the least amount of texture on the mdf.

Ok I see.

I'm going to paint them in a white color, I will use a roller to paint.
It will lighten up the room quite a lot I think. I can send you some pics when I'm done, I'll send you a pm.
