In your garage, or in your driveway? How would anyone know what you are doing in your garage unless you are using the universal repair tool, a mallet or leaving your garage door open?
- jakogut 4y agoI have a 1965 Mustang I recently did some work on that required some grinding and welding. Grinding is quite loud. In a separate instance, I replaced a wheel hub bearing on a newer model Explorer, and I beat the old one with a four pound sledge for over an hour trying to get it out.
- LinuxBender 4y agoI suppose this might force some people to install sound-proofing in their garage. It's amazing what layers of plyboard can do. I knew someone that played a drum-set in their garage and I could not even hear it 2 feet outside. This probably won't work with roll-up doors though. And for Sacramento during the summer I guess this only helps for people with air conditioning vents in the garage because it can get hot there.
- post_break 4y agoYou know what else is loud and is run every week? Leaf blowers, lawn mowers. Vs some grinding that may happen once a year.
- treis 4y agoLots of people want to ban those too. Or at least banning the small engine ones in favor of electric tools.
- asciimov 4y agoYou must not be from the south. It's too damned hot most of the year to work in a closed garage, you gotta keep the garage door open so you don't die. Also, have you seen any modern garages? Most of them are too cramped to do any work in.
- LinuxBender 4y agoNot from the south but spent a bit of time there. I agree, one would have to put heat venting on the roof and air conditioning. Maybe swamp coolers. Not cheap for sure. Sacramento also gets really hot during the summer, though it's a dry heat. Some of my favorite foods that I should not be eating are from the South.
- petodo 4y agoWhat are general rules about front yards over there? Is it illegal to put up 2-3m high wall right at the sidewalk? Additionally you could add roof to extend rainproof area. I wonder about this since I come from European country where front yards without fence are rarity, though at least it's not that bad as in China where you can't freely go in path/sidewalk between residential buildings because all are gated and fenced complexes so you are allowed to roam only official streets, it completely kills walkability.
