I own a seed grading business. Its a mobile unit that runs a perkins motor and has chains,belts,augers, elevators, screens etc so it makes a hellava noise.
2 years ago I tried some custom made earplugs that are fanbloodytastic.They are sold by a franchise outfit called 'earmold.com.au'
They are a silicone type stuff that is pushed into ya lugole and before it sets a peice of fancy colored string is stuck into both peices.
They come in assorted colors and can even have attachments for MP3's fitted. The whoke job takes about 20 minutes and cost is about $65 for basic.
I use them all day sometimes 14 hours! and end of the job no sore or ringing ears. Its takes the abusive noise away yet you can still hear the other guy talking.
Ive even used them with the router and table saw.
At this stage I have nothing to do with the company but think there is a potential for the future in off seasonal work.
regards Tony
