 Hi Jerry;

 "Just some food for thought" :)

        Going by sheer EBE, (Eye Ball Engineering) & gut
 instinct.........Blasting the exhaust against a flat
 surface must bounce back some pretty big pulses against
 the opposite PARALLEL wall......What if, you bounce the
 same pulse against four (4) walls...See attached, should
 be quieter.

Sounds like a great idea Butch.

Thanks Butch,   I like it, too.   I have a couple of days to think
until the raw materials show up.   Paul  is there any chance you
could trouble shoot this in Rhino?   I want to build it this weekend.
Jerry

Sure. I don't see any problems but will do a rendering.
