Back in March I become a Dad, and as things are now calming down I can
start doing more woodworking, with one problem, tools make noise, wake
baby up SWMBO becomes militant. <snip>

Big mistake. HUGE mistake. Went thru that crap with the first
kid, tiptoe around, whisper, least little noise'd wake him up, then drop
everything to get him back to sleep. PITA. Second kid we had to finish
the inside of this place. Didn't have time for the tiptoe crap, so got
smart; put the kid down in the back room, then hammer, saw, play radio,
whatever; after about a day, the kid'd go to sleep and sleep thru
whatever noise we made. No prob.
