Hi, Does it make any difference to use aluminium wall frames instead of wood ones? Any tips to avoid vibration from the drywall to the other wall, ceiling or floor? Cheers, Marcin

Do you really mean "aluminum"? Or do you mean steel? See this thread for a recent discussion of steel vs. wood framing. Also, very important -- be sure to read and follow all the guidelines in the "Before You Post" announcement. Welcome to the forum! --Keith :mrgreen:
