I will be starting my Stumps clone build soon. I was wondering where people are getting their rockwool? I see it on ebay and the Depot but not in correct sizes.  I am wanting it 2" thick at 8lbs. Also I know kaowool is mentioned a lot, but I prefer the rockwool prices. Is there any other option people have been using with success at rockwool or lower prices.

Google Mineral wool 1280, it is made by AcoustiMac and is in sheet form. A case is just under $100 usually. Roxul Con Rock is another brand.

We specify the panels like these for sound dampening in walls occasionally.

I looked around for my build, and finally found some at my local True Value hardware store, in their lumber dept.

I buy mine from Grainger also, they have it in the size you are looking for 2" thick 8lb density, 2'x4'. Ordered one day got it the next day, I live in Iowa. I also built a Stumps Clone, the thing works great, I can smoke when the outside temp is way low.
