Will do thanks! I tried to call them a couple times today but they never answered the phone. I'll try again tomorrow. Alternatively you could try to contact him at sales@therockshed.com via email if that suits you better or is more convenient

Shawn couldn’t get me one last week but I amazingly found a qt12 locally!
I’ll do the decibel meter thing when I start another batch. I’m doing another week in the rotary right now and just finished a polishing batch.
98db seems pretty wild. (Watch mine is like 97)

It's at 94db 12" in front of the vibe, and 80db at the garage door 20' away... I think it's because I used all large ceramic pieces in this batch and zero small ceramic pieces...and probably ratio of rocks to media was 80:20 or 85:15...

(Watch mine is like 97) The Rock Shed was very nice when I called them today but said it could be months for a restock. I found and ordered a QT66 from Minnesota Lapidary Supply. I spoke with a pleasant gentleman and he said they have most of the Lortones in stock. They don't have a webstore but here's the toll free number 1-888-612-3444. I also bought more Lakers The extra ceramic media probably helps the noise Jason. I used over a pound of media on my last run. Was much more quiet and it protected the rocks.
