I always wear earmuffs with my cheap sliding chop saw. They hang on the
blade cover so I have to do something with them. The ring of the blade is
so
bad it actually hurts my ears.

I already have tinnitus quite bad and you don't want to share that one.
People think it is a joke until they lay awake at nights wondering if they
will go crazy. Sometimes I can hear it over movies rocking the house on
the
600 watt Dolby surround sound 12" speakers and bass boom box shaking the
floor.

I blame most of this on small staple guns and the odd framing nailer shot
(you know the ones that just dribble out of the end?...LOL). Every so
often
you get your head and ears between two joists and the shot deafens you.

Protect your ears from long or loud exposures! Unexpected ones are hard to
protect against.

I can assure you the 600 watt Dolby surround sound 12" speakers and bass
boom box shaking the
floor is not helping your situation
