anti noise built in

[Electric Comet]

any tools have anti noise built in to the tool

this would be the best thing and the best place to do it

with compute tech so cheap if it is not available now i would guess it is not far away

my planer is so loud it may be unholy

When that technology is developed, surely automated punctuation can't be far behind.

Yes, lots of them. It runs the gammit from link belts to automotive style belts on the Ridgid 3650 TS, to noise absorbing foams inside the head of a Fein.

There's no doubt about it, your planer is unholy. It's a man-made object and can be used for God's purposes but it is inherently not holy. It's better that way, for it can be what it is: just a tool.

I've got some pretty quiet hand tools :-).

same here. After 10 , I have to goto hand tools when the wife is back in school.

All power tools have such a feature. If it is too noisy when running, look for a switch labeled on/off and move the button to off.
