[AT] tractor repair in residential garages

[bradloomis at charter.net]

¼ acre? I should be so lucky. 5000 Sq. ft. in town. Sure I could buy acreage
for what this is worth elsewhere, but not with an ocean view and the climate
that goes along with that, in a town of 10,000.

If this is what you want to do at home, you shouldn't be living on 1/4 acre
lots. Buy some acreage. I could comment further but won't out of respect for
Spencer.

I would not be surprised to find that some individuals ran auto repair
operations out of residences. Some years ago I had to ask a tenant to leave
and they left behind a customer's car in the driveway. California inflicted
HVLP spray guns on much of the US. This could spread.

Looks like you would want a door to enter your garage or back building
without zoning inspectors seeing the tractors, trucks, or cars being worked
on inside and keep it locked. Make sure you legally dispose of motor oil,
antifreeze, etc. Some areas have detection equipment in the sewage lines.
 
I only use my impact tools in broad daylight on things I can't get loose
with a breaker bar. When it is snowing or raining I figure neighbors do not
hear.
 
Where I work right now there are bins for ferrous scrap. Since they sell it,
your contribution is ignored as long as it doesn't cause a rejection.
 
The acid test will come when they will not give a building permit for a
residential garage or pole barn that looks like you might be doing
prohibited repairs in it. Jay Leno has the solution. Get a big enough
building and they will leave you alone.
