I'm used to having casts but...

...Monday is going to be interesting.

Sadly as the I'm not a gym member at the moment I've saved a large amount of money - so I'm splashing out on new toys. :)

I'm having my ears cast so I can have some custom sleeves for my Se530's and some custom in ear monitors made.

The process itself sounds kind of unpleasent - cotton wool, alginate, 10 minutes to cure... nice... :confused: Then there's the 4 to 6 week wait. :(

Then...new toys! :D

Plus, as the other half has problems with standard IEM's *the smallest foam pieces are too large* she may be getting some custom IEM's as well. :D Will help her on the train. Plus if I can get the adaptor built, she will be able to use them as her hands free headset as well. http://www.boat-drinks.co.uk/images/icons/icon14.gif

Now...just have to decide on the colour I want... hmmm

Oooh..sparkly purple! :D

It's not a nice experience, I had mine done a few years back for custom ear defenders for shooting. They're very impressive and work incredibly well, but I didn't enjoy the procedure.

I had impressions made at the end of last year for custom sleeves & filtered ear plugs and I wouldn't have described it as unpleasant. It was quite strange having something that looked like araldite squirted down my ears.

The end result was great though, I'd been meaning to get custom made sleeves for aaaages and wish I'd done it much sooner.
