Neighbors are the reason it takes me forever to get things done when working between 9PM-2AM. The compressor can't kick on, the air wrenches can be used and I can't hammer anything too loudly

Never mind starting the car up.
Winter might be a bit better when all the windows are closed and the wind is howling....to cover some of the noise. I still want to buy a little farm 1/3 hr west of the house....a big pole barn would so nice...and the hourses and cows won't be calling the cops.
