Silencer

Sat Dec 31, 2016 4:56 pm

Has anybody made their own silencer. If so what is the best materials to use to supress the noise and dissipate the air.
A guy at work recons using the old style womens foam curlers work well, also he says green scrubbing pads work.
I have thought about filling an ald silencer with spring washers - any thoughts.
Do you think using something other than a metal for the body would make it quieter.
