    The design of the "muffler" needs to be changed to add some kind of baffle to break-up the sawdust stream that blasts a hole in the end of the bag.

    I've never seen so much "fuss" over that muffler cover! I stopped using it the day after I got my first machine. They really don't "do much" anyway except deaden the noise a little. Lots better alternatives as already mentioned. Take a breath...relax...and go carve sumthin'!

    I put a rag in mine when it blew a hole.

    I also put the tape around the threads like plumber would do.

    Glad the sock was unused...might have made the workshop smell like the YMCA otherwise.

    I have a tuned pipe from an old RC 60 pylon racer. I don't fly it any longer so I am thinking of afixing it to my CW. Don't know if it will be quieter but it should sound pretty cool!
    it might pickup a few more R's also. LOL

    In the mean time I went with the rag in the muffler idea.

    Nuts! I gave away a tuned muffler/pipe for a SuperTiger 2500 RC engine a few years ago. Wish I had thought to use it on one of my machines!
