I've been wearing them for 3 or 4 hours at a time, I think they could do with a little more padding where they rest on the top of my head, but maybe that'll toughen up a bit with wear.

A set of food grade buckets with lids that go from 2 - 5 gallons. (Think soy sauce tubs from Chinese Restaurants)

You can find them at restaurant supply stores, one of my favorite places to browse.

A drone. I'll be able to record my freehikes from above. I will try very hard to resist the urge to modify it to drop... things.

I got a drone for my husband, wrapped and under the tree. I expect he'll get it stuck in a tree the first time he flies it.

It has only been a week, but still more than happy that I bought them. It didn't take long to get used to wearing them and there's no discomfort with them any more. I don't wear them all the time though, only when there's noise I'm getting sick of.

I live in a warm climate so sweat is an issue. I'm thinking of making a couple of little cotton covers for the cups.

I quickly learned to take them off when eating, all you can hear is the sounds inside your mouth and they seem really loud.

It's too early to tell yet, this might just be coincidental, but I'm feeling more relaxed. I often don't know what it is that I'm really feeling at any given time but it's starting to show in my much neglected housework. I haven't yet got off my backside and done a proper clean as is needed but bit by bit it's improving. And I've been cooking more.
