Default Neighboorhood Smyting

My forge is inside of a screened-in-porch with a concrete floor located on the corner of the house about as close as I could get to the neighboors. Their house is about 40-60 yards away. The hammering is really not that loud. If you've ever checked you know that hammering nails is a lot louder than forging iron. I use a charcoal forge all the time so there is no smoke. The only noisy power tool I run is an angle grinder. I use it sparingly, and it's not much louder than a leaf blower. Never had any complaints from the neighboors.
