I found that rubber based anti-vibration products were fine for
stand-alone items, like an air compressor, where it didn't matter if the
top bit wiggled around a bit. They were less successful under machine
tools that needed stability.

I wonder if just 'by chance' my little Myford ML10 seems to be fairly
quiet / vibration free (even when I had it in an indoor 'spare room')
because it sits on a wooden cabinet (some sort of ex sideboard /
cupboards / draws thing)?
I mean, the actual lathe is generally quiet in use but you can sense
there would be some LF bearing / drive / belt 'rumble' that I imagine
could carry some way if not isolated?
The pump on my Bambi compressor is already rubber isolated and is
about as quiet as a compressor could get (to the joy of my tinnitus
and the neighbours). ;-)
