Nearest neighbor is over 2 miles away i do what i please LOL!
My closest neighbor is a Arboristsite member and the next just gave me a couple nice saws
Noise is no issue here. Nearest neighbor I have is 1/4 mile away and I own the house and rent it so if they don't like it, TS. Tractors and tillage and harvest equipment out here make more noise than any chainsaw ever will. That and all the idiots driving up and down the road with no mufflers and boom boxes blaring. Besides, I make a lot more noise shooting my magnum caliber hunting rifles and big bore pistols out back on my private 350 yard shooting range.
Why not make it on Sunday too!
Good idea!
It's all based on location, and local laws. What I can get away with is vastly different from what the yuppie in the development in town can get away with. Business types can vary as well. My uncles shop is located in a semi residential area, however local laws state he can do basically whatever so long as it's related to normal business. We've had some late nights working in customers equipment and vehicles, but have always tried to be mindful of the people that live in the area. Pissed neighbors arnt good for business, and even if you are in the right, the cops still come out and harass you if you're working too late. Just nice to be mindful.
Sean... In as much as I own all the homes around me (across the road and on both sides of the farm), if any of my renters called the Sheriff on me (no police out here just the Sheriff), that would be the last month they lived there. and with housing is today, at least up here, they would be up the creek in a boat with no paddle. I'm very mindful which is why I keep my rents reasonable. Not out to stick it to anyone but at the same time don't stick it to me because then I'll stick it to you with a smile. When I croak, my wife stands to inherit a fortune and I hop she finds a good man to share it with because I'll be watching.
Well you must remember not everyone works on your schedule.
Working mostly a late shift from spring to fall I will tell you flat out there's no way in heck I'm awake at 8am after getting home at 2am.
There are days I am up 30 hrs. I have done many a double and came home at all times. In college I worked in a factory 10PM-6:30AM came home for a quick shower then off to class. While teaching I worked in a factory and taught 6;30AM to 2:00PM , came home grabbed a shower and went to the factory and worked til 11:00PM. Some summer's and fall's I worked 11:00PM til 7:30 AM then poured concrete during the day.
If you like Chicago please give up your residency and move to Indiana. They need you!!!!! Ole Gary is a calling
I don't but I grew up in a very urban area (city of Cleveland, Ohio, in town) and I'd NEVER go back to that. I married a country gal 36 years ago and she bought the farm we live on now and I had NO ISSUE becoming a country bumpkin. In fact I've done very well both financially and with the community out here in Flyover Country. Out here a mans word is everything and we do business on a handshake still, but you screw over someone just one time and you are mud forever. I like it that way, quite unlike the city or even suburbia. Hell, I get nervous when I get in a populated area now. I look out the window and see acres of field corn presently and we don't lock our doors ever and they keys are usually in the cars as well as the tractors. You don't do that in a populated area. we do and have for years now.
Actually, we don't need any more of his kid. Transplants from Chicago Land have messed up enough of our politics. Besides that, if someone "likes" Chicago, Gary, IN probably doesn't do a very good job of representing the those aspects that they like.
Indiana needs Chicago, Wisconsin needs Northern Illinois, Iowa needs Western Illinois, and the rest of the state will thrive.
