RE: toroid vibration damping using household products?

To stop toroid vibrations getting tranmitted to the chassis, use a 1/4" Sorbothane square pad which extends to the diameter of the toroid.

I also change the steel bolt to a 1/4" nylon bolt/nuts.

If you want to go "all the way" then, yes, change the steel top-plate to a copper one. All you're doing with this is reducing eddy curfrents (I think!).

Regards,

Andy
