Generator Quiet Box

Last summer I made a generator quite box out of Home D material, that 2" insulation stuff and 1/2 " soundboard with a fan I plug into the genny. With the fan on it stays at ambient temps inside. With no fan it went from 83 F to 113 F before I had to remove the box and let it cool back down. You can see the permanent fan in the temp pic. The sound went from 73 dB to 67dB @ 20 ft. Split the box in half (tongue and groove sorta style) to allow transport in the trailer if needed. Finished up with a camo paint scheme. I have video of the testing I will post somewhere. Still gunna ask Santa for a Honda 3500 haha.
