Just as a heads up someone PM'd me this:

Looks like Rimer & Rimer Machine Shop in Florida made theses. They were purchased through Marine Depot though. I believe $16 online with free shipping.

Let's get @cromag08 to make it! Would be great to have this for the 4" Filter Media Cup! Can you make it happen?
Could you get a hold of him and ask him if he could?

I messaged him, said it would be a good challenge. Hasn't responded since, but if we can rally enough people to push him to do it, I think he would. He makes great things, so I'm hoping he'll take up the task!

Trying to fit this into my busy schedule. If these silencers are still in demand I'd be willing to manufacture them. I don't use them so I'd need to know what they're comprised of and how you guys want them designed.

Yeah, it's nothing fancy. I will say that the perforation design does matter. Whether it's holes, slots, etc. Each one has a varying effect on the noise it reduces, dependant on the amount of flow through it. I have yet to try one with holes, which seems to be the most popular design. The design in the image below seems to cut down on the noise the best in my setup... with the amount of flow that I'm running through my sump. I would love to try ones with simple holes in them though.
