Generator quieting
I have a Honda 3000 EM, I am looking for some ideas to quiet it down. Anyone had success with this, want to share some ideas?

After spending a half hour studying Sound Guy's Quiet Box (see link above), I am sure that this method would reduce noise for almost any generator. His link provides detailed guidance.
Two of his innovations are particularly clever -- first, he rigged up a fan, mounted on the box, to blow fresh air into the generator's intake, and the fan is powered by the generator itself. Second, his vertical exhaust port serves as a baffle for the exhaust, without (I think) creating significant back-pressure in the exhaust system.
Thanks again, Sound Guy, and well done!
