You can always tell the difference between those that are sincere and those who think you are nuts. I had numerous neighbors that were genuinely interested in my progress, and it all took place in the driveway, and heard the comment many times, "I wish I had the patience to do that," or something similar. It was highly against our HOA rules, and nobody ever reported me, so I guess they were all interested. The first time I drove it, there were several outside and they all cheered. It was great!
I have had a few snarky comments over the time I was building, and I just said that everyone has things they spend their time and money on, and this was mine. It was better than spending that time and money in the bar, and it was my therapy to get over a cheating, lying ex, and it worked well for that.
