| Do your neighbors hate you? |

That whole "be nice to your neighbor" thing is really over rated. ;D Consider the mortgate payment you make every month before doing something drastic like changing your schedule to please them. Besides, one project in 5 1/2 years is hardly enough racket to piss them off. :P :dunno |

Every time I open the garage, all I hear is "Is the arcade open?". Nope, neighbors don't hate me at all. :) |
| ChadTower:
Yes, but not because of tool noise. Mostly because in MA the word "neighbor" actually means "the piece of crap that lives next door". |
| Hemi:
Just think of all the noise you will be making when you start to play games on that baby. Add a few sub-woofers and turn it up, they will be begging you to turn on your power tools again. ;D |

--- Quote from: shmokes on August 18, 2008, 09:12:07 pm ---I've been hitting my cabinet hard for the past few weeks, but I actually have a few hours in a day to work on it. My wife gets home from work about 5:30. We make and eat dinner. It's 7:30 usually before I can start working on anything. So for the past few weeks I've been out using my jigsaw, router and/or drill on something nearing a daily basis. My neighbors must be getting so sick of listening to it. I think it really is pretty impolite. --- End quote --- I recently got a new house and we're currently finishing it. We stop using powertools after 10pm and usually we don't even work at all after 8pm. Still one time a neighbour comes over looking pretty agitated growling at us that we should stop working since it was 11pm already. We were putting tiles in and I gues that the hammering of driving the tiles in the glue was going through the floor/walls. No one complained about the powertools we used prior to that (to cut the tiles to shape) :P It's a whole new neighbourhood anyway where there are people at work virtually non-stop every day. |
