Most of us ID'ers, having spent at least four years in design school, can usually figure out how to do DIY stuff; manufacturing techniques have been drilled, no pun intended, into our heads.

Still, there are those DIY projects requiring a level of expertise our ID profs never taught us. On that note, we love this post from Wired showing how to pull of a DIY project most urban dwellers dream of--soundproofing! Learn about Green Glue, mass-loaded vinyl and automatic door bottoms; block out the neighbor's wailing kid, the downstairs guy's surround-sound Michael Bay fetish and the basketball-playing punk upstairs.

Thanks Adam!
