I guess its not a business until you start claiming taxes and concider it a business.
I have done several different ventures out of my garage and never called it a business. But...I dont get the tax deductions either.
One thing you will have a problems with is trying to get a business license to run a plating set up in a residentual area. They will definently frown on this and then you will have the EPA involved. My advise (kept me out of trouble so far) is to just say its a hobby. Try to keep it low keyed also. Neighbors seem to think electroplating baths are made out of dynamite and nitroglycerin!!! A few of my (cool) neighbors know what im doing as I have taken the time to explain what things are. But for the most part...its low keyed. The days of guys doing things at home are getting rarer and rarer thanks to the people that dont have anything to do but complain! Grrrrrr....
Good luck
