I'm still doing a lot of catch up. I have to stop myself nightly from replying to threads that have been dormant since 2012 or 2014. I must add that based on your avatar pictures, most of you haven't aged a bit in that decade. I digress.
After reading a dozen or so posts on piggy-backing vibratory hoppers, I decided to drive over to Johnson Brothers and pick another bowl. I should explain here that my wife was not happy with the decision. She said nothing when I added the first rotary, nor she peep at all as the other three trickled in. She did get a bit annoyed with the Flat Lap, but it's on a cart and gets wheeled to the backyard on nice days. The Trim Saw seems to have been something of a red line.
I made a compelling case for the Gy-Roc, but it fell apart the first time I used it. We reached detente when we discovered that the vibe cannot be heard upstairs. I am allowed to turn it on at 700pm as long as it is off by 9am. That's worked, but minor construction work happening month, had me in the garage than normal and I absent-mindedly shortcut three 3# hoppers through stage two without moving them on. So, I decided to get another hopper.
I wrote all that to write this. I prepped two hoppers to turn on this evening for the overnight run. I plugged it in to make sure things were ready to go and noticed how much quieter it was. I am sitting in my living room now about 12' and an interior wall away. I cannot hear a whisper and the wife has granted as lifted the day time vibe injunction for a three day test period.
Life is good.
