Using water weight as a vibration damper... is it a bad idea? I have a machine that I have been working on for a little while and now that its cutting (aluminum mostly) i have a bit of resonance that I'd like to remove.
I'll be filling hollow tube sections with an epoxy sand/gravel mixture, but more is better right... so i was thinking of putting the coolant tank (green box in the picture) under the table attached to the frame for some extra mass. In solidworks it says I'd be gaining about 300lbs.
Think it's worth my time? or would it have any negative effect?
I'm open to ideas.
Thanks
